    Goal for the month is 257 miles (strange number is to get me up to 4000 miles for 2016).

    Did an odd indoor workout today, watched a game of rugby while doing a two hour low intensity ride and then did a 3 min max power test. Maybe a two hour "warmup" was a little excessive!

    34 miles to kick off the month.
    I've been training indoors so far this month but today got out for my first outdoor ride for a month.
    Felt really alien to be cycling outdoors again! Wind noise - constant gear changing - steering! What's that all about? :smile:

    Lovely leisurely 46 mile ride but did include my nearest big climb and the view was spectacular - ten minute uphill grind - https://www.strava.com/segments/628859

    Unusually hands didn't suffer from the cold too much but feet were frozen. It's surprisingly difficult to walk properly when you can't feel your feet.....

    120 miles so far this month, 46 outdoors and 74 indoors mostly on WattbikePro. Been playing with the Wattbike hub phone app, interesting and the fitness tests are challenging.

    137 miles left to hit my goal for the year.
    eSpinning bike for hill intervals - 20 miles.
    TT on WattbikePro - 23 miles.
    Managed another outdoor ride in cold and foggy conditions - 36 miles.
    Cardio warmup / warmdown cycling to the gym and back - 6 miles.

    85 miles for the week, 205 miles for the month.
    Just 52 miles to go to each my year goal now.

    The TT was to hit a personal power output goal I've been chasing for over a year, it's taken that long to improve 2.5%. Oh the joys of being an old fart. :)

    Three more indoor training sessions on the WattbikePro saw me hit 276 miles for the month but more importantly ticked off my goal for the year:
    242 Hours
    4,019 Miles
    712 Personal Records
    139 Activities

    Having some time off work allowed me to get some more hours in. Also set up my hybrid on the turbo trainer for some chilly garage training sessions.

    374 miles for the month, mostly indoor.
    4117 miles for the year.

    Went out for a brisk & chilly 60 miler today to stretch the megameter (1000KM) streak to 6 months. Hadn't ridden much in colder weather as I'm visiting family further north and regretted not digging around more for my biking gloves. Still, enjoyed the ride as it got up in the 50s, and set to ring in 2017.

    12/2 - 26 miles
    12/4 - 20 miles
    12/7 - 34 miles
    12/9 - 72 miles
    12/10 - 38 miles
    12/11 - 21 miles
    12/12 - 31 miles
    12/14 - 8 miles (to/from police station to file report)
    12/16 - 78 miles
    12/17 - 49 miles
    12/20 - 20 miles
    12/21 - 77 miles
    12/23 - 43 miles
    12/26 - 19 miles
    12/28 - 10 miles
    12/30 - 23 miles
    12/31 - 60 miles

    Total: 625 miles (6,761 for 2016)
    Goal: 621 miles
    Remaining: DONE!

    Happy new year!

    Sun 18 - 32.26 miles

    MTD 182.49 / 200, YTD 2745.02 / 2500

    Very cold, but... first 30+ miler, first 50+ K, first 1000+ feet ascended, first 2h30+ ride, and in shouting distance of both the 200 mile target for the month, and 2750 for the year. Very happy with all that!

    After real life intervened in a major way, that ended up being it for the year.
