Personal statistic - More miles/week than hours worked/week

[Peter Fox]

Doing the sums for Feb-Sept this year (A pleasing 2100 miles) made me realise that I do more miles
per week than hours I work. OK so in the context of most readers here that is nothing. . .

. . . But it occurred to me that this could be quite a rule of thumb for distinguishing between
'people who have a bike' and 'people who make use of their bike'.

Pah! That's nothing! Oh, you said that.

Given that I ride 15 miles each workday it would be hard for me not to ride more miles than I work
hours, really...

Assuming a nominal 8 hour day, that's only 3kph; I'm surprised you can balance at that speed on a
'bent. Hey, I just invented commuter speed!

I'm somewhat faster at 4kph <boast>.

It's time for some new metrics. Those wimps who run a half-marathon in 65 minutes while I keep going
for 110. Pah.
