If it's any consolation it's a long long way from the World Record :pac:
It was set by Tommy Goodwin in 1939, when he rode 120,805km (or 320km per day) :eek::cool:
That's some going when you consider the bike he had and the condition of the roads back then!!
So..........yes, you can do it

I suppose how realistic it is depends on what sort of mileage you covered in 2013 and how much of a step up it is from that
It will be nearly exactly double what I done last year, but then again last year I started putting the time in mid april
This year has been from the Jan 2nd :PMorrisseeee wrote: »If it's any consolation it's a long long way from the World Record :pac:

thats a savage amount of miles... my bike gathered a lot, actually a hell of a lot, of dust in 2013. my goal for 2014 is to clean it off
Haha I had to buy a new Bike... well by 'had to' I mean I didnt have to so basically when the carbon came knockin, the credit card got THROWN at it :PThat's a fairly massive amount of ams to be doing in one year. I came in at just under 13,000 last year, which included races, sportives, commuting, basically everything. Jan-July, I wasn't doing much commuting, though I did make up for it by doing some mid-week spins. I reckon it's doable if you have a decent commute and get in spins/races on Sat and Sunday. A few of those mad 3-400km Audaxes would also help boost the mileage.
I dont really have a good commute, I could add about 50 kms a week by commuting currently, Ill just spend the evenings from Jan to March/April knocking out as many KMs as possible then as I did last year do every race and tour going
Have Fulcrum Racing 0 wheels on the way too so its a huge upgrade for the bike that will make it that bit better0 -
