How did you get on in 2022?

[RustyMTB]

Looked up my stats for the year. I'd say average, 6/10ish but I enjoyed every mile, spesh as none of them put me in hospital for a change.

Really enjoyed this years rides. Plenty of climbing as it’s hilly where I live.

A low mileage year for me, but also no broken bones !

Mainly been taking time out to re-hab properly and my body is finally starting to function correctly (or at least as well as it used to... )

 

[Stihldog]

No broken bones here either. . Got a lot of riding in but also focused on a specific “new” trail. I’m seeing eMTB gangs popping up this year.

The year isn't over yet...

Really good. The high mileage associated with an ebike has paid dividends. I have been riding the regular x country bike around as it is a welcomed challenge. It's not too different than riding in eco mode. Still the modern geo on the ebike makes going quick easier, regardless of the motor.

Read that & now I wish it was.

This year luckily more descent than climbing. About ¾ mtb and ¼ emtb. But that's because of the large amount of bike park riding.

 

[Tubby G]

Less distance this year compared to last, mainly due to riding the lightweight rather than the full fat, but still loved every mile

 

[Slymobi]

Lots of injuries and illness this year but quite happy with outcome.

More rides but less distance than last year.
Currently on 2885 miles total.

Well, it's been difficult. I was in and out of hospital for the first half of the year, my husband died in May which wasn't unexpected and he was ready to go, despite which it wasn't exactly a good thing. From June things started to improve and I'm back on form but still building muscle up to what it was this time last year. Plus I have a new toy, a Scorpion FS 26 trike, which goes like the clappers of wrath, and has really nice suspension. 2000 km since June, I have no idea about elevation gain but I do know about the big grin on my face. I've even got proper lights so I can ride after the sun goes down, which I've never done before.

Lowest mileage year for a good few!

I destroyed my shoulder from a hugey on the bike back in the spring - full tear of the rotator cuff, socket damage, bruised nerve. 8 months on from surgery and determined rehab and the riding is coming on. At one point I was going to find a different sport but glad I'm back on the saddle.

I am re-thinking the type/intensity of riding for 2023 onwards though. No more sketchy off-piste/blacks

Up on last year. Mostly on road and gravel bikes.
A bit of XC and Cyclocross thrown in .

Only 250 miles on the e-bike this year .

2022 isn't done yet.
If it stops raining another ride will see 300k ft
