Used to cycle a lot on cheap kids mountain bikes, my previous bike though I had probably notched up less than 3000 miles over 8 years. (most of that in the first couple of years while at uni)
Last year though I got back into it and bought a cheap hybrid style bike (cheap but from a proper bike shop rather than supermarket or Halfords Apollo brand) I have had it just over a year and done just over 2000 miles (3200km), about half is commuting, the other half leisure riding.

Looking into getting a road bike as well though. Currently most interested in the B-twin Triban 540

Yeah Triban 540 is a great bike in fact most of the Triban's are great except for their entry level model Triban 100 which is awful and horribly compromised yet only £50 less than the Triban 500SE, it should be something like £120 less. My current road bike is a super cheap Claris equipped Vertigo Carnaby but I fancy a Voodoo limba at some point which occasionally go sub £300.
