I thought I'd better get this annual summary thing out of the way while I still have some vague memory of last year. So, straight to the numbers for 2009…
On the bike
Distance: a smidge over 7300km
That was ju-ust within a top 1000 finish on bikejournal.com (nicked that idea from Surly Dave).
Riding days: 199
Average daily mileage: 20 km (or 36 km if calculated for riding days only)
Consecutive days riding: 147 (116 of those in 2009)
In February, I proudly announced that I'd done 101 days on the bike, having started on 1 November 2008. I quietly neglected to mention that my run ended on 27 April due to illness.
Days commuting by bike: 123
That exceeds the requirements of the Commuter Cycling Century club on bikejournal.com: "each member attempts to ride to and from work on at least 100 days in a 12-month period".
Audax mileage: 2935 km
For the 2008/09 Audax season, I rode 14 brevets including 4 permanents. At one per month, I qualifed for the Year Round Randonneur award and a few other ~~merit badges~~ awards. It's already established that I won't be scoring the YRR in the current season…

Like the site, I like to ride and your blog helps keep me interested. Thanks.
p.s Would be good if your reference to bikejournal.com was a link.
Good Year by any estimation. Congrats on the Year Round Randonneur especially.
