January 2016 cycling statistics

This year, I am going to try to make sure, I post my cycling statistics again every month. Last year, I was very bad at it. Mainly due to how little cycling I had been doing.

So here are my cycling statistics for January 2016. I did 184.20 miles. Which means, I did over double the number of miles this January, than I did in same month of last year. When I only did 80.30 miles.

Here is the data from January 2016:-

  • Total cycles: 10
  • Total Distance: 184.20 miles
  • Total Time: 16:41:00 (h:m:s)
  • Avg Speed: 11 mph
  • Max Time: 2:26:21 (h:m:s)
  • Max Speed: 32.8 mph
  • Avg Distance: 18.42 miles
  • Max Distance: 26.79 miles (Single cycle)

Data from: Garmin Connect.

Here are my favourite cycling photos from the month:-

Big jump in views, thanks to Greg James in a wetsuit!

This is what happens to my website stats, when I post photos of BBC Radio 1’s Greg James wearing a wetsuit to my website! Most times my website gets around 350 views a day. Due to Greg James it got 672 views yesterday.

So here are the wetsuit photos again!

Another Greg James wetsuit photo!

Here is another photo of Greg James wearing a wetsuit! He’s starting to grow on me!

He’s doing 5 triathlons over 5 days in 5 cities for Sport Relief. So good luck to him. I could not even do half a triathlon, never mind 5!

Greg James wetsuit again!

2016 cycling wise is off to a good start!

So far cycling wise this year is off to a good start! Last January, I only did 80.3 miles! So far, I am just over that! Done 81.6 miles. Which may not sound that great. But at least it’s start! Just hope I can keep it up! Really want to try to get back into cycling more this year!

Last year (2015), I only did 2,341.4 miles. Which is very bad indeed! Because the year before that (2014), I did 5,334.9 miles.

Also if, I do more cycling this year, you will of course get to see many more photos like this…
