    I've been looking at RAGBRAI pics. What a great experience!

    It is. Put it on your bucket list (any cyclist should do it at least once). 20,000 riders riding across the state of Iowa at the same time is a pretty unique experience to say the least...

    I might make 200 miles. Not sure how to commute to work, it's a business office. Suggestions welcome on that one! But please add me to the group, I've got grocery getters on the hybrid and am learning the area on the bike.

    Y'all are some biking monsters.

    I did a 12.75 mile loop yesterday, left my driveway, drove out to one beach and then to another, then looped back to my house. I love riding trails but there is something to Be said for working out and not having to drive somewhere to do it.

    Looks like I have ridden 47 miles this month, but its not my primary exercise. Though its definitely my most enjoyable exercise.

    Completed my best ever month on the bike. Completely shattered my previous best results in virtually every category.

    My initial goals this month were 800 miles and 50,000ft climbing. Halfway through the month I increased those goals to 1,100 miles and 65,000 ft climbing.

    Happy to say I finished with 1,176.3 miles and 74,141 ft climbing :-)

    07-01 31.8 miles ridden at 14.7 mph avg. with 1,496ft climbing
    07-03 29.3 miles ridden at 13.0 mph avg. with 1,818ft climbing

    This has been a difficult month for me. I had to have abdominal surgery early on and the recovery has kept me off of my bike. I was told earlier this week that they found cancer in my previous surgery (If any of you are praying people, I would appreciate anything that you can send my way). So, I end July having only gotten in one ride and face August without much hope of getting more. Just know that I am in your corner, cheering you on and riding vicariously through you!

    7/3 - 1.5 miles at 8.9mph.
    7/5 - 2.6 miles at 9.9mph.
    7/7 - 0.8 miles slowly.
    7/9 - 3.0 miles at 10.2mph listening to Cheap Trick on the Walkman (external speakers - not earbuds).
    7/12 - 3.0 miles at 10.6mph listening to the Go-Gos.
    7/14 - 1.0 miles at 8mph.
    7/16 - 2.8 miles at 10.5mph.
    7/19 - 5.5 miles at 10.0mph listening to The Mavericks. Pretty sad that I'm excited to be on pace to get 30 miles for the month, but it's been a sickly month. And I AM excited to be on pace to get to 30 miles this month.
    7/20 - 2.0 miles at 7.5mph listening to the newest Black Keys album.
    7/21 - 5.0 miles at 11.1mph listening to Skillet. Felt pretty good today. And I managed to out-ride a tiny dog that was trying to bite my ankles. He almost got me.
    7/24 - 3.0 miles at 10.1mph listening to Supertramp.
    7/26 - 1.8 miles slowly - combined miles from yesterday and today as cooldown from mowing.
    7/28 - 0.5 miles.
    7/29 - 1.2 miles.
    7/30 - 1.0 miles.
    7/31 - 3.8 miles at 10.8mph.


    MTD = 36.5 miles.
    Goal = 30 miles.
    Still need = 0 miles.

    My thoughts are with you, CricketKate. All the best!!!

    July Totals: 801.35 miles for a duration of 60:03:22 hours

    800 miles and 60 hours on the bike was NOT my goal for the month of July!!!!

    Regardless, I crossed the 800 mile mark today. That's way too much riding for my XC race oriented goals, but the week of riding RAGBRAI (Register's Annual Great Bike Ride Across Iowa) blew up my numbers. I'll be back down to more normal miles and hours on the bike for August (and beyond).

    Congrats to all for a great July of riding. I'm sure we are all looking forward to August (I know I am as I've got 4 races), so here's to August and turning the cranks...

    How scary, CricketKate. You have my prayers.

    7/1: 30.52 miles
    7/4: 25.12 miles
    7/5: 29.94 miles
    7/8: 15.37 miles
    7/9: spinning (counted toward cycling days)
    7/10: 16.90 miles
    7/13: 30.86 miles
    7/16: 15.31 miles
    7/19: 38.20 miles
    7/21: 15.52 miles
    7/27: 17.07 miles
    7/28: 14.21 miles
    7/31: 8.49 miles

    Goal=250 miles and 16 days; Now=257.25 miles and 13 days.
    Mileage goal met; 3 fewer riding days than I'd wanted.

    I'll repeat the 250 goal again, since I should be running more in August, and maybe bring the days down to 15.

    Not really sure what my goal was after all, but I wanted to ride as many miles as I could in July. Ended up with 1872.8 miles (3014 km). Really happy with the results of my hard work.
