    I am in for October. Setting my goal for 200 miles. Since last months crash I will be starting slow. Getting better, started riding again today and I think by end of week I will be back to a normal ride 20 miles or so.

    10/1 - 23.5 miles - 13.4 ave - got my goal for the week 1st. day. Hip and Ribs felt good
    10/4 - 18.5 miles - 13.7 ave - very warm but windy SW 25 mph gusts to 31
    10/11 - 32.2 miles - 13.6 ave. - 61* nice out still a little windy
    10/14 - 5 miles - 11.6 ave. - 70* outside but 41 mph winds gusts to 60.
    10/15 - 34.7 miles - 13.5 ave - good day of riding
    10/16 - 14.0 miles - 13.9 ave - night ride





    127.9 miles for October = 1737.4 YTD Really wanting to reach 2000 miles for 2012

    What a gorgeous sunny WARM day here in Southeast Michigan. I was able to snag another 18.13 miles in a nice 1:38 ride. Top speed of 17.6 and average of 11.1. Didn't get off the path too much as ground was a bit soft.

    Cant believe how close I'm getting to my goal already!! But I dont think I'll be able to cycle in much more, its getting too dark :-( unless I invest in some awesome lights...can anyone suggest any good ones on a budget??
    [/quote]

    I'm using these to commute to work in the mornings and so far I'm pretty impressed. I'd like to have a brighter headlight at times but for a budget set they work good. I think I paid around $25 for the set.

    Today I only rode 6 miles to the beach and back to Bodyboard.
