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. :)

    First bicycle ride of 2022!!

    It was 29C (84F) when we headed out with about 25 km/h winds from the north. North winds are hot winds.

    But it was overcast and we had the occasional drop of rain, so it didn't feel too hot. I think there might be a storm later!

    My husband and I were long distance cyclists till his accident.

    Since his accident, the longest we've cycled is about 53 km, and we did do one ride of at least 50 km every month in 2021.

    Today we decided to go longer!! Today we cycled 64.47 km! We both started to get tired toward the end, but we did it! :)

    Managed 386 miles in January including one gran fondo distance ride today.

    Some indoor training when it was too cold/wet/dark but mostly out on the roads.
