New PR on the bike.

RobertCotton

I have only been using the site for about 2 months. My preferred cardio exercise if riding the mountain bike. When I first started I was doing about 2 mile per day on the bike. I have tried to add about a mile per week. Yesterday I did 7 miles which was the most I had done up until that point. Today I decided to try to push my limits. I picked out a destination that I knew was at-least 5 miles away and just started pedaling. It turns out that it was 6 miles, so today I hit 12 miles and still felt good, little sore on the bum, but that goes without saying.

That's the way ... gradually build up.

That is the way to do it, just keep adding about 10% distance to your total. That can be either distance or time. A year from now, you will be amazed at how far you can go.
