    I just bought a road bike last weekend and I am a total beginner, but my goal is to ride 3 days per week right now. There is a nice flat trail not far from my house, and I am hoping to check out others in the area as well. (It is paved so I guess you would call that 'road' miles?)
    6/23 - 2ish miles of hills near my house which was awful, but I was excited to try the bike!
    6/25 - 7 miles
    6/27 - 9 miles

    Oh, ETA- I am 5'1'', I went to 3 different bike shops and no one had a bike small enough for me... I ended up buying this one from an 11 year old girl who outgrew it LOL

    I’m 5’3” and I’ve had to order all my bikes because the bike shops don’t stock our size!

    It actually worked out really great for a first bike! I got a more expensive bike for less than I expected to pay, and I know they took really great care of it.

    12.5 this morning. I did the same ride as yesterday. Today wasn't about speed, it was about staying in the saddle. I did it! No breaks (except a 3 song walk at the pond) and no hill walking.
    @CricketKate
    Spectacular progress. Count the smiles as well as the miles.

    Managed to get a couple of rides in to boost my June totals (25 hours, 336 miles).
    Really struggling with the unusual heat wave hitting the UK at the moment.

    Litre of fluids before I started out, 1.5l during a 2:40 brisk ride and limped back the last few miles feeling too hot and very dehydrated. It's not just the roads that are melting....

    My retirement job has grown a bit more than intended and a couple of deadlines to complete projects mean that I'm a bit pushed for cycling time - it's a bit too much like working for a living again!! ;)
    Hopefully one more busy week and then it should settle down.

    13 miles today. I rode with my children down to the pond. (I should get bonus caloric 🔥 for not cursing at the agonizing pace) All pain, no gain. The extra half mile can from doing laps in the parking lot while they played with the ducks.

    June total 48! Not bad since I only started on Monday.qn34ljec2xfn.jpeg
