1/6 - 18.2 trainer
1/7 - 27.9 trainer
1/9 - 100.3 (Computer went south and no data for mid 1/3 of the ride; based on info from guys I finished with ~5:15 moving/6:20 total, 2,130' elevation gain, and ~19mph average.)
1/11 - 35.4 trainer
1/12 - 22.8 trainer

1/21 - 29.5 trainer
1/23 - 60.8 (Planned as a metric but after just under 3 hours in the rain I got soft and bee lined for the comfort of my car. Problems reading the computer and hence following the route didn't help much. All in all, a fun four hours of soaking.)

1/25 - 11.5 trainer
1/26 - 18.4 trainer

First bicycle ride of the New Year!! 38.4 km ... should be almost enough to burn off all the cinnamon rolls I made and ate.

Saturday 2 January -- 52.06 km with 613 metres of climbing. Plus wind. Plus ... surprisingly chilly. My feet were quite cold when I got in. Plus 0.6 km walk to get shortbread cookie making supplies.

Sunday 3 January -- 32.8 km!! And that brings 8 days in a row of cycling to an end. I was kind of hoping to do a flat route, and the first 20 km wasn't too bad, but then it got hilly. Oh well, I'm starting to get used to that.
Plus 1 km walk.

This was the Campbell Town Canter 200K put on by my club, Audax Tasmania.

I haven't ridden a 200K since March 2012, and getting back into randonneuring again was one of the main reasons I decided to come here and lose weight and get fit. This was one of my goals for 2016 and I'm so pleased to have successfully completed the ride with my husband!

My Januarys have never been particularly brilliant in terms of cycling distance, but this January was the best one I've had since I started cycling "seriously" in 1990!! I beat my previous PB by 65 km. I wasn't even thinking about doing that ... just trying to cycle as much as I could in preparation for that 200K.

I'm in for the month, but injured my shoulder falling into a monsoon drain in Miri during my holiday so can't ride my road bike or do any sort of distance until that heals. I have dug out my tourer, installed a carrier and will use it to do my errands. I'm guessing maybe 200 km this month

Absolutely knackered today, but it's been a sweet training month. Bunch of solid sessions in the bank, and looking forward to a nice recovery week this week. And being done with weight loss, which I will likely be in the next 4-6 weeks. Trying to do this kind of training in a deficit certainly doesn't make things any easier!

I didn't get on the bike again after the 26th as life totally took over and I had so much on. Anyway now I have a total that I need to beat in February!! Last year I took January off so I'm glad I just got on the bike this year. I have a really tough 140km mountainous cycle in May so the training is getting serious from here on in!!
