September goals?
Goal #1: Oktoberfest starts on my birthday this month, so I guess my goal this month is to stay ahead of the calorie count by turning the pedals enough to indulge...
Goal #2: Get fewer flats this month.
September 3 - rode 14.7 miles for a duration of 1:06:09
September Totals: 14.7 miles for a duration of 1:06:090 -
Added another 8.7 to the monthly tally last night.
9/1 - 12.7
9/2 - 12.8
9/3 - 8.70 -
I know it's probably kind of lame, but can you participate if you ride on the stationary bike at the gym? (the tall one, not the recumbent one)? I don't have a "real" bike anymore, and anyway, I'm terrified of dogs, so I do my riding in the gym. Usually average about 15 miles a session. Would that be okay? And how do you join?0

Sure you can use a stationary bike, there are a few others that also count spinning 'miles' or time.
And you have just joined, Welcome!0 -
How does everyone track their miles? An app? A bike computer? Would be interested as do lots of cycling but no idea how far I go!0

30 miles in 30 days doesn't sound as easy as it sounds to me either I don't ride, but I am going to try and use this goal as well. Good riding everyone!0

To stay motivated I track mileage.....I started an imaginary cross country road trip.....my starting point Wantagh, Long Island and headed to Los Angeles.....my journey started in May and I have travled 2021 miles with about 800 or so to go....I'm running out of time.....my rides are after work and days are getting shorter......to reach my goal of 500 for the month of September I need to average 17.8 miles a day......0

Just slack peddle until the start of the segment saving your energy and then kick it in to high gear. It is kind of like cheating, but not quite0 -

9/3 - 16 miles

Hoping to get to around 300-325 by month's end.0
