I have been averaging between 125-150 miles a week on my bike for the last four months.
Due to the cold weather (34 degrees when I got up to ride today!) I had to go to the gym and use the eliptical machine. I haven't been able to ride in four days! Does anyone know when is the first day of spring??

    I hope soon! I haven't ridden since my Century last Friday--but I really haven't wanted to that much either after 100 miles :tongue:

    Haven't made it to the gym either but have been walking my puppy 2x a day for a total of close to 5 miles a day. burns up close to 400 calories--not the incredible numbers cycling did but hey, calories is calories! But the walking time with the pup cuts into time I might be able to go to the gym. And, she has to be walked now, as she's a bundle of energy!

    I did 20.3 miles on Monday and it was WINDY and Cold. I bought toewarmers to go over my biking shoes so I can get a few more rides in outside. I only biked twice in October and I do miss it.
