    I'm going to lurk a bit - just got the nicest bike I've ever had a few weeks ago. It went out for one maiden voyage before the holiday season proceeded to kick my butt lol. I plan to read and make some mileage goals. I'm pretty severely overweight BUT I'm signed up for a Ragnar Relay in April which I do not plan to skip out on...

    Installed my present (cateye strada computer) and took the bike for a spin yesterday and today. Unfortunately, none of my existing heart rate monitors were compatible with it (as it seems to use a proprietary 2.4ghz sensor), so I'll need to snag a new one so I can see cadence, speed, and HR in the same view.

    12/1 - 25 miles
    12/2 - 16 mile
    12/3 - 40 miles
    12/8 - 7 miles
    12/13 - 7 miles
    12/15 - 40 miles
    12/16 - 30 miles
    12/17 - 20 miles
    12/19 - 50 miles
    12/22 - 33 miles
    12/25 - 23 miles
    12/26 - 28 miles

    Total: 319 miles (12.3 miles/day)
    Goal: 400 miles (12.9 miles/day)

    Just need to get in 81 more miles of biking (and 35 miles of running) over the next 5 days to hit my challenge goals (400 bike, 168 running), then I get to start tapering for my mid-January marathon.

    That's a wrap for December. And that's a wrap for 2014!!!

    No matter how many times you turned the pedals over this year. No matter how many miles or kilometers you logged. No matter how fast you went. No matter how many feet of elevation you climbed. No matter how much dirt you rode on this year. No matter how many miles of gravel you logged. We get to do it all again next year starting tomorrow.

    Happy New Year all you cycling nuts!!!!
