Wow @Machka9 - that sand must be tough to ride through!!!!
Made I it out on the bike this afternoon, but didn't go far, just ten miles. On the way back got a little distracted, and had to sacrifice my water bottle to collect blackberries.
Considerable scratches all up my legs after I fell into a patch but the end goal is good!!!0 -

We have ridden on a few beaches, with bicycles with wider tires and at a time when the tide is going out so we can ride the packed sand near the water.
But this time we just took a little break from riding on the road to walk over to the beach.

Hi everyone again . Here's to September! It's finally spring, so hopefully I'll be able to get out and about more often again.
I am making an effort to do stairs 5 days a week now, so I'll be tracking them as time, but not distance. And I must say, it has already made a difference. We had seats for the Symphony as high as you could go in our concert hall last Friday, and I had no trouble at all getting up there.
As for goals, I really want to do more than I did in August. Hopefully longer daylight hours and potentially warmer weather will allow me to do that.

Saturday's ride ...
My husband and I cycled 42 km in an area we haven't cycled in a while. Just a few weeks ago, we cycled in the start/finish area, but this time, we headed another direction.
The ride was an interesting mix of flat and climbing with 311 metres of climbing. The main hill had a 16% grade, and the last time I tackled it, I struggled a lot. I was dying. So much so, we haven't returned to this route in about a year. But today it was OK. Sure I was in the granny, but I made it up without much in the way of huffing and puffing or back pain (thank goodness).
The weather was also perfect ... sunshine, not much wind, and 19C.
And just as we returned to the start area, we cycled through a suburb full of smells of spring flowers and BBQs.

I spent 5 hours prep, painting and clean up. So I didn't get a lot of walking in today. I still am ahead of my goal for the month

So I had a busy end of the week last week (ok I was at the pub three nights) so I didn't get my usual cycle home from work and so by the weekend I was feeling unmotivated to do anything. Likely as I was hungover from being at the pub three nights and so I've fell behind on my target.
95.1 miles / 150 mile target
I go on holiday Wednesday but it's a city break so plan on lots of exploration. I don't usually include steps in my mile counting but taking my pedometer so I will on this occasion.
Setting myself this target I never thought it would be achievable and now im wanting to get there. Amazing to think this time last year I struggled to cycle couple miles on am exercise bike 0 -
Thanks to those this month who have been posting. Apart from my lapse end of last week you've kept me on track0
