Last June is going to be hard to beat. Last June, we spent 3 weeks in summertime in Canada cycling and hiking etc. etc. This June, we'll be in the depths of winter here in Tasmania.
However, I will make an attempt to get somewhere close to last June in terms of time or distance ... or both if I can manage it.

There's a major storm coming. They've been advertising it for days now ... supposed to roll in this evening. So we set off relatively early (11 am) in order to get this ride in before the storm arrived, and yet late enough so that the frost would have melted off the roads.
It was about 10C where we live when we set off, and climbed up the Southern Outlet. That's about a 12 km climb and by the time we got to the top, we were both overheating because we had dressed for cold. I figured I'd be shedding clothes as soon as we got to the bottom of the descent.
But when we got to the bottom of the descent, it was indeed cold ... it had dropped to 8C and then down to 7C while we were riding. That was combined with a little breeze and heavy mist all the way out making it feel quite chilly. I was wishing for winter cycling boots! My toe covers weren't quite up to the job.
We turned around and fortunately the mist/drizzle stopped, and what little wind there was dropped off to practically nothing.
We had thought about stopping for lunch, but opted to just keep riding back home instead. A hot shower and coffee were calling! So we kept cycling back to Hobart and then up and over Bonnet Hill.
Our elevation profile shows one big climb at the beginning, then almost flat, and then another big climb at the end. Variety!
Happily, we did the ride within randonneuring time. Mission accomplished!
There were a number of cyclists out there today ... all bundled up and looking rather cold. So we weren't the only ones.
Weekend adventures ...

I'm back!! I was madly studying for a final exam worth 50% of my mark. Thankfully, that is done now! There will be a long wait to find out how I did, but at least the course is finished and I've got a month till the next one starts. With only full-time work to do (instead of full-time work + a grad course), I am hoping to get more cycling in.

Dark Bikefo 200K - Saturday 18 June
Rowan and I cycled 200.23 km with 2227.58 metres of climbing. It was a 200K randonnee to celebrate the winter solstice.
6 riders set off at 7 am, just as the sky was lightening slightly and we could make out the yachts and birds on the bay. The temperature was a chilly 4.3C with a bit of a headwind bringing the "feels like" temperature down to 1.8C.
Our route took us out the cycleway, a common cycling route. Unfortunately some drunks had been out there during the night and there were large patches of broken glass here and there along the way, so large that we had to lift our bicycles over.
Once on the road, the glass problem disappeared, and a little further up the road, the temperature dropped to 3.3C. Funny thing was, just before Rowan told me it had gotten colder, my feet and hands started feeling very cold and I was doing windmills (rotating my arms around like windmills) to try to warm my hands.
Onward to New Norfolk and then Bushy Park, the first control. Up till that point, there wasn't much climbing at all. But soon after the climbing began. One of the first climbs was a long steep thing that left me feeling quite nauseated and dizzy at the top. It was a tough climb! I saw it on the way back and thought, "I climbed that???"
At that point, I wondered about the possibility of finishing the event because I knew there would be more climbing for a while yet and I just didn't feel up to it! But I kept slogging away ... up and up ... and then, all of a sudden, I got a second wind or something and had energy for the rest of the 200K.
Unfortunately Rowan had issues with cramping again which kind of slowed him down.
We arrived in Bothwell, the turn-around point, with about half an hour to spare ... and got some salty food + ice cream. We were hungry! But it was a quick stop and we were back on the road again and heading back.
Everyone said that it's downhill on the way back from Bothwell. Well ... um ... not really. There is quite a bit of climbing for the first 32 km out of Bothwell ... and then, finally, it's downhill. I really enjoyed the downhill bit. That was fun!
For some reason, the section from the 145 km point to the 159.99 km point took forever!! I felt like I was watching those kilometres tick by for somewhere in the neighbourhood of 12 hours. Several times I watched to make sure that my computer was actually working ... at times the numbers seemed to freeze. I began to long for numbers in the 160 range ... just for something different, just to prove that we were actually getting somewhere. I had to laugh when I figured it had to be 160-something already, looked down at my computer and it read: 159.99. I couldn't catch a break!
Darkness was falling as we rolled into New Norfolk again and stopped at a little shop with a very friendly lady behind the counter. We chatted a bit about long distance cycling. She may have been there the last time we got our cards signed on the "So you want to ride 100 miles" event we did several months ago.
The next bit was my least favourite. It's a busy 16 km or so with narrow shoulders that sort of come and go, and includes a 2 km stretch with no shoulders. I'm not fond of it in the daylight ... the night was no better. Although I do have to say that most drivers were pretty good. It's just that there were lots of them.
I was relieved when we got off the main road onto a quieter road, and even happier when we got back onto the cycleway again. Fortunately the broken glass had been cleared away.
And we rolled into the finish area after 12 hours and 36 minutes.
Just adding it to my totals ...
June 18 - 200.23 km cycling (12 hours and 36 minutes in total!)
I've done a couple recovery walks on the two days after that event, but hope to start ramping up the exercise again today.

I got in 11.5 miles this morning. My mind remembers my old cycling circuits a lot better than my poor, old legs.2

Ok - got in 40 hot miles today, and was a bit disappointed that my new more breathable helmet didn't really feel like it was ventilating much better than my aero helmet. Still, it being 90 degrees for the ride likely had something to do with it. Down to 34 miles left for my goal which should be taken care of on my chicken wing ride tomorrow evening with some friends. Surprised I'm letting my running & riding goal come down to the last day, but each target was aggressive (200/500), and my remaining miles (3.5, 34) are both pretty doable.

Bit of variety this week..Well that's my main challenge for June completed!
Ditchling Devil Audax - 129 miles @ 14mph, 6,975 feet of elevation gain. SW London to the coast and back via seemingly every possible big hill.
That was really tough, very warm day and think I got dehydrated as really struggled on the third quarter and had to take a long cake/water break (the cakes were epic!). Nothing left in my legs for the climbs so had to crawl up the later hills and make up time on the flat'ish sections.
Was supposed to be 127 miles but thanks to Garmin taking me on a couple of detours it turned it into a new PB for me. Happy to get any new PBs at my advanced age.
Here's a link if anyone is interested, brilliantly organised event and the route takes you through beautiful countryside.

Had a quiet start to the week recovering from my big ride, very sore bum and exercise induced asthma.
Tail end of the week got in a couple of 20+ rides and a nice 50+ mile circuit in perfect weather taking in a couple of local climbs (in the Surrey Hills A.O.N.B.).
Combe Lane https://www.strava.com/segments/8161359
Staple Lane https://www.strava.com/segments/628859
99.8 miles for the week (If I had known I would have taken a little detour to make it a round 100 !!)
229 miles for the month so far.
Over my exercise induced asthma now and lungs back to normal.
Wish I could say the same for my bum! When saddle soreness become a saddle sore it takes the joy out of cycling. New shorts ordered and will go shopping for saddles if that doesn't improve things.
Tuesday - 4 miles to the gym on my "Boneshaker" hybrid and a session on the Wattbike Pro - now that thing has an epically awful saddle!
Saturday - 50 fast and fairly flat miles with a nice high average speed (for an old fart). That really hurt despite spending far more time than normal on the drops trying to keep my sore spot off the saddle. Now my neck hurts too, it's no fun being old sometimes....
Sunday - a spot of DIY surgery and wearing a corn plaster in a very unusual spot really helped! Another 50 miles including attacking my personal test hill (1.5 miles of false summits). Really pleased to take 30 seconds off my previous PR. Think that elevates me from awful hill climber to poor hill climber!
I'm aspiring to be an average hill climber....
104 miles for the week.
333 miles for the month.
One hour hill intervals on eSpinning bike.
23 virtual miles on Wattbike Pro trainer doing a one hour TT.
16 miles on my hybrid including a towpath trundle beside the Thames past Hampton Court Palace.
20 miles brisk evening ride on my Roubaix.
55 miles on the Roubaix into Surrey woods and heath.
114 miles for the week.
447 miles for the month.
Slow end to the month, short of time and far too much wet weather to get some evening rides in. Just 19 miles indoors on Wattbike Pro doing some threshold training - a.k.a. not much time and wanted to earn some beer calories.
19 miles for the week.
466 miles for the month.
Time to start looking for my next big event....0 -
Wing ride tonight was only 30 miles, so I got in an extra few laps of the block as folks were settling in, missing the first round of beers. Still, got to enjoy my wings and crossed the 500 mark for the month on the 1 mile ride back home from the bar/restaurant. Need to figure out my plan for next month, as I'm cutting back my running, upping my swimming time, and spending most of the month in Florida (which is flat), but I'm leaning towards trying for 600 miles, or maybe 620 so I can complete a metric millennial total.
