    It's never too late, although I will personally be jealous of your weather. I think I will ride outdoors maybe 3 or 4 times this week, and it will be with a high of about 43 degrees.

    Keep up the great riding, and welcome.
    Can I still join in? I'm new to cycling and just got my first road bike (have always been a mountain biker!). I'm totally addicted. Let's see, I'll put my goal at 300 for the month.

    I'm in AZ so can definitely do some outdoor riding, but I'm a wimp so we'll see how much I actually get outdoors to do it.

    Dec 1 - 8 miles (RT to the gym for some swimming and treadmill)
    Dec 2 - 21 miles

    I've been too wimpy to brave the 30s and rain we've been having in the mornings, but the rain is gone and this week is supposed to warm up, so I'm planning on a ride (with leg warmers and gloves) tomorrow.

    Thanks for letting me join your group!

    Dec 1 - 8 miles (RT to the gym for some swimming and treadmill)
    Dec 2 - 21 miles
    Dec 3 - sick
    Dec 4 - Sabbath!
    Dec 5 - Weight workout
    Dec 6 - 21 miles

    I had to put off a morning ride yesterday b/c it was 29 degrees and windy at 8 a.m. when I normally ride. At 1 p.m. it was 53 degrees and a gorgeous ride! Today = still too cold to ride in the a.m., but we have family pics this afternoon, so sadly I'm stuck at the gym this morning and won't log any miles today. I better get after it though if I'm gonna hit 300 this month!

    I froze my toes on the trainer today. I was hot from the knees up and frozen at the feet... I really must frond my winter bike shoes...

    My goal is more than last month (which was just under 120, I think).

    On the bike trainer:
    12/1 - 60 minutes - 13.42 miles
    12/2 - 30 minutes - 7.61 miles
    12/3 - 60 minutes - 14.58 miles
    12/5 - 30 minutes - 6.42 miles (much higher resistance because had to use a different trainer)
    12/7 - 30 minutes - 7.33 miles (so glad my trainer is repaired!)
    Total so far: 49.35 miles


    How are y'all doing? :flowerforyou:
