Yesterday I went for a short bicycle ride around the local lakes. As the weather was very hot, I rode in shorter stages than I'd normally ride.

In Stage One, I rode half of the overall distance.

Stage Two saw half of the remaining distance plus 35 metres covered.

Stage Three covered three-quarters of the remaining distance.

Stage Four completed half of the remaining distance, plus 75 metres.

Stage Five completed the journey with a final burst of 150 metres.

How far did I cycle in total?
