    5.4 on Expresso doing "Moody Ambush"

    I am confused. Is Expresso a type of bike or do you just drink lots of strong coffee? And a Moody Ambush?

    I'm pretty sure it's one of those "interactive" exercise bikes... http://www.expresso.com/

    personally, I'd sooner do 30-40km to a nice cafe, then a couple of double espresso's and something cake-like to fuel my return ride... and as soon as the doctor signs my knee off as being safe to ride properly on, that's exactly what I'll be doing :laugh:

    It was a cool day, and the bridge over Foothill Blvd in Upland is OPEN!!!. My ride just got shorter and easier, but a bit safer too.

    37.89 miles today

    109.12 for October so far, goal is 150 for the month, hmmmm maybe I should re-evaluate.

    That does look like fun! And great for the winter.

    As long as its nice out, I think I would rather join you at the cafe.

    HA!
    Expresso is one of those interactive bikes-they give the rides goofy names. I definitely prefer outdoor cycling-but my knee and the weather decide my day!

    Yes I think you can. You basically can do the 150 in two more rides or if you really want to in one ride. You are setting yourself short. Ok I should shut up because I know you are running a lot too. Either way it is great.

    I checked the link Yin had and it does look like fun! On a chilly morning both kinds of exrpesso sound good.

    Hi,
    I started biking home from work three times per week and would like to join your challenge.
    This week I have logged 70km
    Next week, maybe I will try and fit one more ride in.
    Cheers and fair winds to all

    267 Miles for the Month. I am half way there. Anything over 500 for this month is icing on the cake for my last two months of the year. If I hit 500 this month it means I only 500 left for the last two months to hit 4000 for the year.
