Strava thinks I've done another 16 miles somewhere, which takes me over the 2000 mark for the year, in my 400th ever Strava ride. Now I just need to figure out where/why the discrepancy1 -
I'm definitely falling short this month. Injured my shoulder last Thursday, and haven't been safe to ride since. Any actual strong use of that shoulder takes a lot out of me, and where I live is a lot of steep hills. Heck, I live *on* a steep hill (at least 6% grade, regardless of direction I go). And riding indoors just sucks when it's so beautiful out.0

I need to add up some totals but nevertheless ...
A little weekend short tour ... with a Randonneuring event included.
Saturday -- My husband and I cycled what was probably the most difficult / challenging 200 km randonnee (long distance cycling event ) I've ever done. 210 km with 2700 metres of climbing in a heat we haven't experienced since we were in Queensland at Easter in 2016.
We made a guest appearance with the BC Randonneurs and did the 200K event of the Peace to Parliament "hell week". Some riders also did only the 200K, but some did the whole set of four rides from Fort St. John all the way down to Victoria.
Peace to Parliament - 4 brevets from Fort St John to Victoria in June 2017
My husband was all right in the heat. He is usually the one who struggles with hot temperatures. But this time it was me. By about the half way point I knew I was battling heat exhaustion. I think May's surgery put a dent in my fitness level.
Nevertheless we finished the ride in Victoria within the time limit ... with 30 min to spare! Our total time was 13 hours.
And then went for a 2-3 km walk to find dinner!
Distance: 212.1km (including the ride up to our B&B)
Elevation: 2,729m
Moving Time: 11:39:32
Elapsed Time: 13:36:03
Speed: Avg: 18.2km/h | Max: 50.4km/h
Sunday -- After a deep 8 hours of sleep, we were up for a delicious breakfast at our B&B, and then off again.
We needed to cycle back to Duncan to complete the circle. Today's ride gave us a chance to ride some of the cycling trails in Victoria and that was a really pleasant part of the ride. Then up and over a hill to the ferry to take us across to the second half of the journey. That second half of the journey was a little bit more difficult with a few more climbs ... and heat. The official "in the shade" temp reached 32C, but our on-bike computers showed as high as 40C while we were cycling.
We finally stopped for lunch where we ate salty food and had quite a lot to drink to rehydrate.
From there, we only had about 10 km to go, and were into our destination in no time to complete a challenging little short tour loop (a randonnee + recovery ride) on a hot, hot weekend!
Distance: 51.6km

Finished the month 90 miles short of target, which isn't great, but not the end of the world. Reasonably on target for the year total, bearing in mind holidays and declining mileage towards the end of the year.
So that's me done for the month, for the half year, and for these challenge threads as well, I think - it's been fun and motivating, but I'm going to give it a miss, at least for a while.0 -
Lovely warm weather this weekend but very windy. Good couple of rides including doing two of the UK's Top 100 climbs with a PR and a second best time.

Quieter week but a hot week! Struggling to stay hydrated, I've started weighing before/after my rides to estimate how much fluid I've lost and need to replace.
Also got my Boardman hybrid back on the road with a bit of a service and a new tyre. I'd forgotten what a nice ride it is.
MTD 20 Hours 307 miles 84 Personal Records 10 Activities.

Mileage down this month as I've gone away on holiday to Fuerteventura.
Hired a Specialized Rockhopper from the bike shop that "just happened" to be on the hotel doorstep.
Went for a long ride all along the deserted north coast. Mixture of dirt, dust, rock, volcanic cinder and sand was OK but in one place they were doing some road maintenance which appeared to be just watering the road and then ploughing it to the consistency of modelling clay. 29" tyres grew quite a bit in diameter as I attempted to carry half the road surface away with me....
Returned over the top of a group of volcanoes. Bleak and arid with a fearsome headwind.

Just came back from vacation in the middle of last week. Thursday I had plenty of excuses handy for not cycling to work (jet lag / meeting first thing in the morning / rain / colleague who asked me for a lift), but Friday I added a few more kilometres to the monthly total. Would have been more, but I had a puncture and decided I'd rather fix it at home than by the roadside.
