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.

Are you an experienced road cyclist? Do you bike to work? Do you pull your children to the park? Do you ride weekends? Do you spin at home or in the gym? Is Zwift your thing? Do you race crits, ironman, or centuries? Touring? Audax/Randonneuring?
Or are you just starting out and remembering how much fun you had biking when you were a kid? 

There are no set challenges - this is a mixed-ability / mixed-experience / everyone welcome group. 

Just pick the target that you would like to achieve this month and post updates throughout the month as you work toward your target. We love seeing photos of your rides and hearing all about them.

Given the current situation many of us will be cycling solo or indoors.  Don't feel alone! Share your accomplishments with us. :)

    1st Century ride since 2019 this week, didn't go smoothly as bike got stuck in low range gears after just 20 miles when the front derailleur jammed. Carried on as it was a perfect day for riding and those have been rare with far too many wet days recently. One of those rainy days prevented me doing some laps of the Silverstone race circuit which would have been interesting.

    Also did a 53 mile ride and one indoor training session for 187 miles in August so far.

    I've done just over 4,000 miles so far this year which is a lot for me and if I carry on it will be a new annual record.

    My plan for August was doing fewer rides but doing longer distances (two centuries and two gran fondos ideally) but that's got derailed by not feeling well.
    First became apparent on my second planned century when I started to get strangely fatigued after the first 30 miles and it just got harder and harder with less and less energy. By the time I dragged myself to 50 miles it felt like I had done double the distance and it was going to be hellish to continue.
    I am supposed to be enjoying my hobby after all.... :disappointed:
    Took a shortcut back to the car and 67 miles was more than enough.

    Very odd as I feel totally fine until I push the intensity level up or do long durations and then I feel massive fatigue, lack of power and get super hot.

    351 miles for August.

    I've been following a coach's training plan this year, building volume for two triathlons. Completed the first race in June, which included a 56mile bike split. Now during August, my goal is to build volume while testing various nutrition and hydration strategies for an Ironman race on September 26th. In August, my cycling work has been;

    Week 1 62miles & 3:22hours on the trainer
    Week 2 112miles, no trainer rides
    Week 3 103 miles & 1:05 on the trainer
    Week 4 83 miles(planned) & 1:12 on the trainer

    I'm lucky to have a bunch of avid cyclists in my triathlon club. Here's a picture of some of the crew during a recent 100 mile ride. Also included is the map of the bike course for the September race. The bike course is supposed to be a lot of fun. Can't wait.

    My plan for August was doing fewer rides but doing longer distances (two centuries and two gran fondos ideally) but that's got derailed by not feeling well.
    First became apparent on my second planned century when I started to get strangely fatigued after the first 30 miles and it just got harder and harder with less and less energy. By the time I dragged myself to 50 miles it felt like I had done double the distance and it was going to be hellish to continue.
    I am supposed to be enjoying my hobby after all.... :disappointed:
    Took a shortcut back to the car and 67 miles was more than enough.

    Very odd as I feel totally fine until I push the intensity level up or do long durations and then I feel massive fatigue, lack of power and get super hot.

    351 miles for August.

    After a week of short, low intensity rides decided to try the second half of the intended Century as I was feeling better. For the first 30 miles I felt great and speed came easily but after a long but unremarkable grade climb felt really flat again and never really recovered.
    Progress in that 50 miles felt like 70 or 80 miles instead of 100 but still frustrating.

    491 miles for August.
