Totals
2005 is coming to an end, so I thought I might look at how much GPS data I collected this year. Here are the stats from TopoFusion’s logbook:
7162.34 mi (2115.21 mi uphill, 2201.25 mi downhill, 2741.14 mi flat)
689050 ft total ascent (692276 ft descent) – 7.7 % uphill grade, 23.3 % downhill grade
115 days 3:42:06 total time (32 days 3:26:10 moving, 83 days 2:13:56 stopped)
7:40 pace (9.4 mph average speed, 53.7 mph max speed)
3046.575 difficulty, 10829.240 effort
If I can get a few more good rides in this month I should break 700,000 feet of climbing. Not bad for being unable to ride for ~2 months after the Great Divide Race. Of course I don’t take a GPS on EVERY ride I do (esp. commuting) but one GPS or another always comes along for any ride that’s interesting or long.
I added a measely 17 miles and 1000 feet of climbing today. Great, cloudy day to head out for a ride, but my legs felt pretty crappy. Too much sitting around and computer usage will do that too ya’.
My TopoFusion logbook begins on 3/21/2002. On that day I rode the Green Mountain trail with an eTrex Vista. That’s the earliest ride I have in GPX format. I GPS’d rides for the previous year, but I used a piece of crap mapping software that threw away all my TIME DATA.
All of my GPS data combined:
18110.59 mi (6166.34 mi uphill, 6265.07 mi downhill, 5497.11 mi flat)
1994924 ft total ascent (2001756 ft descent) – 8.7 % uphill grade, 14.4 % downhill grade
318 days 15:23:58 total time (87 days 5:42:15 moving, 12795 days 12:05:43 stopped)
8:40 pace (8.6 mph average speed, 53.7 mph max speed)
10305.273 difficulty, 35401.695 effort
All the above dist/climbing is about 1 million individual GPS points–all collected under human power (no drives in there). Yeah, I’m a GPS freak.
