I've just totted up the distances I've logged on the MWA app since I changed my tyres at the end of april. From the 28th of April to the 4th July I logged 701.8km.
It's all relative...
When I started riding in preperation for the LEJOG ride a couple of years back I would have been astounded at the volume of kms stated above... In fact I was as that was the sort of distances I had scheduled in for training. In reality 300km of the above is training rides. The rest is transportation.
When I got the brompton I was doing about 16 km a day as my round trip commute and found it exhausting at first and exhilerating after that.
By the time I started on the Kona the commute was 32-34km each day as a round trip but I didn't do it every day.
I saw both these as training rides. Now it's just transport.
In the end I thought of the ride to Brighton more as a fun day out than a training exercise. I don't know about you but I think that's a good thing.
