    Distances include cycling + walking ... but mostly cycling. :grin:
    March: 489.8 km (304.3 miles) = 38 hours 4 min
    April: 491.94 km (305.6 miles) = 43 hours 6 min
    May: 361.81 km (224.8 miles) = 35 hours 50 min
    June: 569.53 km (353.9 miles) = 41 hours 53 min
    July: 230.7 km (143.35 miles) = 32 hours 45 min

    Sep: 306.7 km (190.6 miles) = 35 hour 2 min
    Oct: 441.82 km (274.5 miles) = 47 hours 43 min
    Nov: 660.21 km (410.23 miles) = 60 hours 41 min
    Dec: 499.91 km (282.8 miles) = 54 hours 56 min
    Jan: 864.79 km (537.35 miles) = 65 hours 36 min
    February has fewer days to work with, and it looks like it will be a very busy month with events, travelling, and starting my next course at uni, so I'll aim for about 48 hours of exercise. :)
    So far ... no cycling.

    I did a 200 km randonnee on Jan 30th and haven't been back on my bicycle since. That's partly because I'm recovering and partly because I've been very busy since then. But I should commence riding again soon. :)

    Yes, I'm still here!! But my husband and I have been away so I haven't been entering things. That's us in my avatar. :)

    We went to the mainland, to Warrnambool, Victoria. When we lived in Victoria, we visited that area several times and like it, so we decided to take a few days and go back again. :)

    Here's the story:

    And I'm working on the photos:

    That photo album also contains previous trips to that area.

    Feb 20 - 46.9 km (148 min) cycling. Actually, it was a lot longer than 148 min, but I entered that to get a realistic calorie amount.

    On this day, my husband and I accomplished one of the goals that has been on my list since we arrived in Tasmania. We cycled up kunanyi/Mt Wellington!!

    We started in a location about 2 metres above sea level ... and cycled up and up and up until 24 km later, we reached the top at an elevation of 1271 metres (4170 feet).

    Just a quick run up the cycleway and back into Salamanca because we were the Final Control volunteers for the Tour de Tasmanie: *Tour de Tas

    Goal - 400km

    02/02 - 20km turbo.
    05/02 - 22km turbo.
    09/02 - 21km turbo.
    12/02 - 20km turbo.
    14/02 - 47km road.
    16/02 - 16km turbo.
    19/02 - 19km turbo
    23/02 - 18km turbo

    Total - 183km.

    I'm going to fall short of my target this month. The weather has been so wet and windy that my weekend cycles have been non existent. I'm hoping to get 80km done on Sunday but I'm working flat out between now and then so won't even get on the turbo. Hoping March brings better weather and then I'll get some km's under the belt.

    You guys rock! I was able to add a few miles on a stationary to total 41.12 so far, far from my goal. Damn the ice here in New England. Ride on friends, ride on!

    Back in MN from honeymoon.
    Fell short of goal this month. Did ride a tandem on vacation and we decided to buy one - they are a blast.
    I'm at about 45 miles for the month after a balmy 55 degree couple hour ride yesterday.
    Nice to be back in the saddle. Looking forward to March weather.

    Distances include cycling + walking ... but mostly cycling. :grin:
    March: 489.8 km (304.3 miles) = 38 hours 4 min
    April: 491.94 km (305.6 miles) = 43 hours 6 min
    May: 361.81 km (224.8 miles) = 35 hours 50 min
    June: 569.53 km (353.9 miles) = 41 hours 53 min
    July: 230.7 km (143.35 miles) = 32 hours 45 min
    Aug: 211.3 km (131.3 miles) = 28 hours 8 min
    Sep: 306.7 km (190.6 miles) = 35 hour 2 min
    Oct: 441.82 km (274.5 miles) = 47 hours 43 min
    Nov: 660.21 km (410.23 miles) = 60 hours 41 min
    Dec: 499.91 km (282.8 miles) = 54 hours 56 min
    Jan: 864.79 km (537.35 miles) = 65 hours 36 min
    February has fewer days to work with, and it looks like it will be a very busy month with events, travelling, and starting my next course at uni, so I'll aim for about 48 hours of exercise. :)
    So far ... no cycling.

    I did a 200 km randonnee on Jan 30th and haven't been back on my bicycle since. That's partly because I'm recovering and partly because I've been very busy since then. But I should commence riding again soon. :)

    Yes, I'm still here!! But my husband and I have been away so I haven't been entering things. That's us in my avatar. :)

    We went to the mainland, to Warrnambool, Victoria. When we lived in Victoria, we visited that area several times and like it, so we decided to take a few days and go back again. :)

    Here's the story:

    Feb 20 - 46.9 km (148 min) cycling. Actually, it was a lot longer than 148 min, but I entered that to get a realistic calorie amount.

    On this day, my husband and I accomplished one of the goals that has been on my list since we arrived in Tasmania. We cycled up kunanyi/Mt Wellington!!

    We started in a location about 2 metres above sea level ... and cycled up and up and up until 24 km later, we reached the top at an elevation of 1271 metres (4170 feet).

    Fell quite a bit short of my goal but looking back at this month I only got out on the road twice. The turbo sessions have been great though and yesterday I felt as strong on the bike as I've ever felt. There was a huge climb in the middle of the 80km that has nearly finished me previously but yesterday I got up it pretty ok. I'm hoping that March brings more settled weather here because it felt good being out yesterday. Looking forward to starting a new month!
