The birds are singing, the grass is greening, and my legs are screaming. It must be spring!

    5/2 - 1.5 miles.
    5/3 - 2.4 miles at 9.5mph listening to Haim on the Walkman (totally safe cuz I don't use headphones).
    5/3 - 2.5 additional miles at 9.5mph listening to a variety. I knew I was going to ride twice today but I didn't wait to just post once because I don't think it hurts to bump the thread twice a day.




    Goal for May is 75 miles.
    MTD = 6.4 miles.
    Yet to Ride = 68.6 miles. Yes, I can. :smile:
