    Well, the day of my accident I rode to and from the trail head so I actually met my 200mi challenge. Not getting many if any more miles this month. Then, I am going to have to have to build up again. July's challenge is going to be a real challenge for me.

    7.2 miles, home from work yesterday. I need to do some mega riding this weekend to make that goal. I can't believe how much I slacked this month!

    Finally got out and was able to do some distance with a new seat. I might have found one that will work for me. With tonight's ride I am at 284 miles for the month. I have been asked to do a 50 mile tomorrow morning. I did alright tonight for not riding for two weeks. I think I can handle 50 tomorrow.

    I didn't get my 50 in but did 26miles. Helped a person out instead of finishing. But with the 26 miles today that gets me to 310. With my traveling next week I doubt if I will get 400.

    With this morning's ride I am at 335. 400 looks like it will be tough to get. I leave in the morning for a business trip to Des Moines, IA. Possible a few trails I could ride on while there. Will have to check it out.

    well as this month comes to a close and it's my first on the bike I think I've done pretty well. According to Mapmyride, I've ridden 102 as of today..... Yay I made it.

    With this mornings 30 that should put me at 365. I just may make the 400 yet if I ride with the local group Wednesday evening. Would still have to do a few like 20 on Thursday.

    If I ride with the local group tonight I would get 30 more miles in leaving 5 tomorrow last day to get 5 in and then I would have 400. My biggest hurdle is that I have not seen my wife for over a week now until this morning at 1:30 AM. If I ride tonight I may be dead by morning. I just don't think my wife would go for me being gone tonight after not seeing each other for so long.

    So what do you all think - Ride or Not?

    We had a good argument about it last night. She accused me of never asking and I accused her of never wanting to go. So hopefully it will all change and we will spend time together on the bike. It maybe tough on my only going 5 to 10 miles at a crack slower than I usually ride but it will be worth it.

    I need 35 to get 400 today and I did not ride with the group last night. Just maybe I can ride my bike home from work, take a long way home and get the 400 in. If not then I promise 500 next month July.

    Hope you all have a great 4th of July weekend if from the US and if not well you can still have a great weekend.

    Got a bit of a bug, so I won't be riding today. My final tally according to garmin connect is exactly 279.00 miles for the month.

    June 30 14 miles. 289/400. Had I been at home doing my 21 mile ride, I would have made this challenge. Oh well, I made a good effort.

    I did it...501 miles! The really awesome part is that I didn't even ride 13 miles, last week (thanks to Mother Nature...only got out briefly on my new cyclocross bike).
