I've cycled a total of 789.7 km (490.8 miles) in my cycling expeditions (which may also include public transport) so far, visiting 24 hashpoints (and two failures) in 20 separate trips.

You can see all my expeditions on my expeditions page.

Expedition	Distance	Notes

2013-08-05, Cambridge	12.6 km (7.0, 5.6)	Finally got the Tron achievement. Heavy rain on the outward journey.
2013-07-29, Wicken Fen	43.7 km (23.4, 20.3)	Out mostly on roads, back on the new Lodes Way and old railway. Very slow cycling because of all the dirt tracks.

2009-04-23, Little Gransden and Cambridge	59.8 km (25.5, 28.3, 6.0)	Double hash; distance is home -> 52,-0 -> 52,0 -> home. First bike double-hash; was almost a triple-hash attempt.
