    29.5 miles or 47.2 km! That is about all I had in the tank for today...

    Goal: 160
    Total so far for March: 80.8 km

    Looks like I might need to up my goal. :)
    Yeah you need to double the goal mate:)

    But there is still a chance of snow... 14 day forecast there is at least 1 day they expect snow. It was cold enough outside this morning that it felt like my eyeballs were going to freeze with the wind blowing in my face. Might have to get a pair of sunglasses to protect my eyes while riding. :) I do have a personal goal to hit 300 km's this month.

    18 km on a stationary bike...



    The same again today. I have a pretty kick butt stationary bike. I ride it on days that I don't run - easier on the knees. I bike around 11 miles every time - I think that's 18km right?

    And again...18km/11miles on 03/09...

    Snow again today - so looks like I'll be on the stationary bike a little big longer....

    Today: 31 miles or 49.6 km! :) Guess I am no longer a fair weather rider as I went through 2 downpours, a stiff 10 mph wind on the way back and over some patches of snow and ice before I had to turn back because it got too bad and almost crashed. So worth it!

    Total this month: 81.5 miles or 130.4 km
    3/4 - 33.6
    3/9 - 47.2
    3/16 - 49.6

    Gnoccola really thanks for updating the chart! This is showing that 150 km is very achievable for all of us. I was not sure how much I could that is why I put a small target. Almost all of us are on target apart from you:bigsmile: May be push yourself this coming week. Thanks again

    Ahahah! I'll try. I did too many squats last week at a point that I was not able to go down the stairs without screaming in agony. So, no bike for me. This week only 150 squats per day (Plus of course 30 push-ups and 60 dips), so I'll get back on the saddle.

    Well this sounds like a good workout! If you are doing this daily then who needs cycling:)

    33.38 miles = 53.4km! Finally broke the 50 km mark in one ride!

    Total for March 190.2km! Broke my goal and I have a whole week to go! :) Going to shoot for 250... maybe I can break it up in smaller increments. 50+ km was killer today.

    12 km done again today. I hope I have also reached my target or may be gone over it. I will raise my target for April but it has been a good start of cycling in this month.

    Hey guys post your cycling miles as well.

    Real short ride tonight... but I saved my Yukon from having to start up. ;)

    1.35 miles = 2.16 km... there was a good hill which made me work for it.

    Hey Everyone!!

    Sorry I have been so MIA. My mom came for a visit and all exercise when out the window she was here for 18 days. Sorry, I would really like to try again for April if you are willing to give me another chance. I know I can do it. No family coming next month :)

    You guys are such an inspiration you just blew 60 out of the water. FANTASTIC!!!!

    Another 29 miles today. 46.4 km!!

    149.23 Miles
    238.77 Kms

    There isn't any way I can do another 50 km's tomorrow, so I'll leave it at that for March... maybe I'll go ride around the block and make it an even 150 miles... :)

    Excellent work everyone! If you didn't meet your goal this month, let's try again next month!!! If you met your goal, set a new goal for a bit longer next month! You can do it!!!
