Well I definitely have never gone more than 40 miles a month so count be in for my low total and I will see what happens.0

The goal this month is 180 miles
9/02--16.23 miles
Total--16.23 miles0 -
I am not going to set a target for this month as I find it then becomes hard work instead of just getting on the bike and riding until I can't ride any further with a big smile on my face, most of my miles are done on a canal towpath so it is not safe to go fast with all the children walking down there but at my age that suits me just fine :happy:

GJ everybody.
I think i'll just lurk around. Trying to get inspiration from everybody. Not to be Debbie Downer, but I just can't get on my bike. It's been over 3 weeks and my mileage has gone from over 600 mi's a month to 0 in August.
Feeding off all your good vibes!0 -
Hi guys, I'm back for another month!
Not setting a goal this month though as I'm gonna be away from home a few times this month without cycle :noway: so I'll just see what I can do!
03/09 - 5.29 miles (road)
MTD = 5.29 miles0 -
45 miles already!?!? It's 9pm here in the uk now and I'm gagging to get on my bike to start this months count..... I'm too competitive for my own good I must admit ...

I'm a Brit too!! :happy: I'm over in Gloucestershire tho :flowerforyou:0 -
Can I still be in even if I don't do it every day?? The kids' bike trailer broke a wheel, so I am a little 'held back'. I'll kick *kitten* on the weekends, though, when the kiddos are gone!!
Not a problem! I just cycle when I need to go somewhere or fancy going out, which usually accounts to 3-4 days a week, it all counts!0 -
Hello fellow cyclists!
I'm new to the challenges, here on MFP. Is there a group or do we just check in on this thread every week? Today was my rest day, so no cycling. I did walk over 6 miles according to my fitbit, so not much rest, really.
In August, I rode my bike 306 miles. I have a 50 mile ride planned for tomorrow, and two century rides planned for the 3rd and 4th Sundays in September. I also use my bike to commute to and from work (about 3.5 miles each way). I would welcome suggestions as to what I should set for my mileage goal for Sept. Considering I'm doing 250 miles in 3 days, and plan on riding about 70 miles on the 8th and 80-90 miles on the 15th. With those five days alone, I'm looking at 400 miles total.
So, maybe my total mileage goal should be 600 miles (966km) for the month of Sept?
Welcome! I'll try to answer your questions. There is no official group, we all just post on here as frequently as we ride. It sounds like you are doing amazing things! The only goal that I suggest to people is to be a little better. Set a goal that will motivate You.0 -
Welcome, Everyone, new and old (meaning, of course, previous members. I would never call someone old).
If you missed the last thread, I ended August with a terrific crash (2 in 2 days, actually). I am letting my bruises heal a bit, so I haven't been on my bike yet.0 -
I'm in! I'll be logging total miles- running, walking, and riding. Goal for the month: 250 miles
9/1 6.8 mi ride (On my brand new road bike!)
9/1 4.52 mi run/walk
9/2 366.7 mi (motorcycle- WOOHOO!)
9/3 6.2 mi run/walk
Total: 17.520 -
My kid started school! Took pictures together this morning.
I want to spend more time on playing tennis than bike riding, so I'm going to dial down a little. 10 miles / day was a little tiring when I was on tennis court. Too bad running on the tennis court does not count. :-)
So, I'll set the goal to 8 miles/day, 240 miles total.
