    I'm feeling a little blue tonight. I got a bad sunburn over the weekend and it had hurt too much to go out in the sun. This morning I was feeling a little better so I went out and mowed my yard. That 2 hours in the sun caused my sunburn to blister, even covered by my T shirt. So, no rides for me over the last few days.

    Not sure what the cycling challenge is or how to join but would love to find out. Just got back on my bike after some random health problems and trying to make up some lost ground. I hope to bike around 1500miles to the beach next spring so open to any challenges

    I did not start the challenge, but there are no hard and fast rules. We have road warriors like myself and others who are just getting their fix geared bikes out of the garage, airing their tires, and hopping on them for the first time in a long time. There are no set goals everyone just posts what they feel like posting- distance, time, speed, or whatever.
    The idea from the challenge is to get folks active and cycling is one of the ways to accomplish that. Welcome aboard.

    Today 37 miles july total 220, no special goal. Due to knee injury it is the only sports I can do. I try to do 2 hours at a time and 15 mph.

    Welcome, One and All!

    I'm glad to see so many people interested. I still haven't made it out on my bike since last Friday. All the skin peeled off of my back and shoulders leaving me very red and raw. (I know, too much information).

    FYI I have been using the Strava app on my smart(ish) phone to track miles and speed.
