That's it? A paltry 40km/yr? I think I put like 5000km on mine in the past year just by commuting daily.

- WildUtah 13y agoI do 15,000km per year here in Utah. Even 188km per annum seems like maybe you don't need a bike because you could just walk.
- Luc 13y agoNot how averages work :) (Maybe everyone only used their bike for a yearly 188 km ride. Or one woman rode 10,000 km and the rest 10 km. Etc.). But then I do often use my bike to go 50 m, since it's faster and I can carry stuff on it.
- alxndr 13y agoYou (and I) keep that average up at 40 by balancing out all the bikes that get 0 km/yr.
- teej 13y agoThis isn't too surprising to me. I'm not sure how average americans perceive the tradeoffs, but biking where I live is incredibly dangerous. Your yearly commute in micromorts is 311 versus 12 by car. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Micromort http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Micromort
