    I have been doing some spinning this winter but April will kick off my REAL biking. Still have cold weather and snow on the ground though so hoping things warm up soon.

    4/01 - 1hr spin - 16 miles
    4/02 - 1.25hr spin - 20 miles
    4/03 - 16 miles @ 16.3mph 700' climbing --- First outside ride of the year!
    4/05 - 32 miles @ 15.7mph 1,500' climbing --- Took way more effort then it should have. Have a lot further to get back in shape then i thought.
    4/06 - 16 miles @ 17mph 700' climbing --- felt a bit better, upgraded to between ok/tired at start of ride instead of tired/week.
    4/07 - 30min spin - 8miles
    4/08 - 1hr spin - 16miles
    4/09 - 45min spin - 12 miles

    Total miles: 136 miles
    April goal: 300 miles

    I've been out of commission. My bad knee that is bone on bone is really hurting me lately so no workouts of any kind be it walking or biking. I am waiting till Monday to call Dr to see if gets better or may just be the weather bothering it.

    Nice easy 40 miler this afternoon as it was a rest day from running. Starting my pre-marathon taper on Monday, so should be able to get in more bike miles as I decrease my running load. Looks like I'll be passing on the cross-Florida ride Sunday, as the logistics aren't looking too feasible.

    4/2 - 35 miles
    4/3 - 11 miles
    4/4 - 38 miles
    4/6 - 10 miles
    4/10 - 40 miles

    Total: 134 miles
    Goal: 450 miles
    Remaining: 316 miles

    Man, we had thunderstorms for the last few days and I have been slacking off this week! Today I managed to get in some hill repeats after work. Going up, I'm okay with, oddly enough, it's coming back down that's the problem. Getting better aka less twitchy and nervous, though!

    4/10. 23.5 miles, 1041 feet of climbing.

    66.3 miles down.

    Easy 20 today with a non-biking friend. Migrating back north Monday, where I'm trying to get around exclusively by bike for a few weeks. I'll see how that goes, but it should help with the mileage.

    1 hour trail ride today- up hill (gentle) for ride out and a gentle descent back. Much firmer trail than last week. Easier clipping feet in on the go.
