Hi everyone--
I'm a little late to the party, but am so happy to find like-minded folks. I bought my first bike since childhood this spring and i love it. My rides are usually somewhere between 15 and 20 miles, taking it slow and easy. Can't do more right now, trying to delay knee replacements for as long as I can.
i don't remember other rides, but here's one at least

Thinking I gotta step it up if I'm going to meet my goal this month. It's either too hot outside or storming or I'm too fatigued. I still don't like riding stationary. Wish I did.0 -

Just started riding on Father's day. I am really liking it. Awesome form of exercise. I've missed two days riding due to the weather (riding in the rain is bad enough, but a lightning storm is a whole different ball game)

Back into riding after many years of being pampered in my car.
First time out nearly killed me, but just bought a nice new road bike (Sensa Trentino SL 2013, 105 Compact group set)
Lunchtime rides at work 8-9 miles & trying to get longer distances in during the evenings and weekends.
Look a bit blobby in the Lycra but the padded bib shorts are something I could not envisage ever being without again.0 -
My 5 mile route was actually 4.8 miles, but I added passing my house, going to the corner, and coming back, which adds that 0.2 miles to make it an even 5 mile route.0 -

Yes they count, for most of us.0 -
7/1 - 5 miles outside.

7/11 - 5.2 miles outside. I was bitten by a dog on today's ride. Not bad, but I had to pedal really hard when two dogs came after me. Cleaned it with isopropyl alcohol and I should be fine. One of the dogs on my old bike route was killed today because it bit somebody (I had to change routes because two dogs kept trying to bite me). We have leash laws, but people don't seem to care.
MTD 34.4 miles.
Goal is 100 miles.
