    I am in. Again even though I didn,t get 300 last month, I am setting my goal again for September at 300

    9/1- 8.6 miles - 12.3 ave.
    9/3- 65.7 miles - 14.7 ave
    9/10- 10.9 miles - 12.1 crashed all the miles I could do for the night.
    9/14- 2.5 miles - just to see if I could do it after the crash, not my better judgement
    fractured ribs and a dislocated hip.
    9/23 - 2.2 miles - tried it again, pain at bottom of stroke still not ready for a long ride. Crashes suck!!





    89.9 miles for Sept. - 1603.3YTD

    Glad to see all the miles racking up. Even though I can't ride now because of the crash, I still have been keeping an eye on everyones progress. Good job everyone and stay riding!

    September 25 - 18 miles recovery ride
    September 26 - 30 miles. Commute

    Total For Month : 765 miles


    Calories (not that it matters I do not eat them) are based on the rough formula of 30 calories per mile ridden. It may be more or less on any particulary day so I let it just average out in the end
