If you are new to posting on this thread, or if you are new to cycling, we welcome you! If you are returning from a previous thread, we welcome you, too.

This thread is for anyone who rides a bicycle ... or unicycle, tricycle, tandem, etc.

Do you bike to work? Do you pull your children to the park? So you ride weekends? Do you spin at home or in the gym? Is Zwift your thing? Do you race crits, ironman, or centuries? Or, are you just starting out and remembering how much fun you had biking when you were a kid? However you choose to push your pedal, you are welcome on this thread.

There's no set challenge across participants - this is a mixed-ability / mixed-experience / everyone welcome group.
Just pick your own target that you want to achieve this month, post that when you join the thread, and post updates throughout the month as you're working towards your target.


Given the current situation many of us will be cycling solo or indoors ... share your accomplishments with us. :)

    50km before work for me today, including a climb that I’ve apparently only done once before and avoided ever since (it was nowhere near as bad as I remembered).

    July Goal - Ride 1x a week on dirt or bike trail - 6 miles or more. I've been working out hard 5 days a week, this is my "day off." I do love to ride on dirt! So we'll see what I can muster. The heat has been something else. . . You guys inspire me with mileages! Hmmm. . .
