    I'm doing the Insanity videos so my goal is to simply start riding my bike to college and work etc. I am working on getting my bike fixed today to do so. Hope I can keep this goal! i'm thinking to ride my bike instead of drive for 3 days a week

    Great idea! I might try doing that but coming to the work is downhill mostly and going back uphill after being tired would be really difficult. This is why I have not done that. I might give it a try some day.

    What is your target distance for the month?

    I think you underestimated yourself:) looks like you will get your target in the next 2-3 days. May be add another 125 Km on top of your april target. Thats how we should cycle:)

    Another 7 km.

    So 17km total.

    I really do think an upright bike would of been easier... maybe I will coordinate to go biking outside with some friends.

    You are doing amazing job. I think you might even go over 225 by the end of April.

    That made me realize that I have only done 50 km in April and I should have done 100 km by now. Hopefully this weekend weather will be bettter for cycling.

    Good 29 km done today. I have improved my time from 120 minutes to 108 minutes for the same distance. This is good 10% improvement in my time:) Total distance for April 79 km.

    Average speed was 15.8 km/hr and highest was 48.1 km/hr downhill.

    My target is 200 km and need to put more effort for sure.

    I haven't been consistant with logging my miles but I have been riding...although they are calling for flurries tomorrow (it is April 22nd right??) I was able to bike outside on Sunday and logged 20 miles. I've probably logged about 75 miles so far...I may get to 100 and then I will be all over it!! Great job to everyone!!!
