75 day cycle challenge - Anyway, anyhow!!!!!

bump

I'm in for some of that. Love the tread iron. Winter cycling can be such fun!

Day One - 8 miles on rollers in the garage.
I know this doesn't count but I also did my 1st ever cyclocross yesterday. They had a beginner race that was only one lap. I beat the 9-year old bike less than a bike length. Great fun, very hard work.

My cycling is on weekends, and I run and weight train during the week. I am doing the challenge, just not on the bike yet.

Bunked off work this afternoon and put in 29 miles. Nice day seemed a pity to waste it.

Hope I got everyone. Good luck

ps. I now ache!

Got a ride in after dark. It is quite peaceful then, but I almost ran over a skunk and a number of rabbits. I rode for 59 minutes 15.5 miles. Because of travel for work and swim meets for the kids, the next chance to ride will be Saturday evening.

i'm in but i don't know if it's fair for me to be in because i bike commute about 60m/wk not counting pleasure riding...

kayemme: I'm not the guy that set this up but I would say, log the miles you do in addition to your commute. The idea behind the challenge is to get people out and riding. So this would be encouraging you to do more than just your commute.

cathmack: I think this is a pretty loose group so I took the time to add your mileage below. It will be your job to keep it updated.

I got out to ride today on my tandem with my 11 year old son on the back. He is normally pretty skitish on the open road, but doesn't mind riding on the back of the tandem with dad. We roade out to McDonalds where he got a milk shake and fries. He took his water bottle out of the holder and put his milk shake in it. He also put fries in my rear jersey pocket. So as we rode home he ate fries and drank a shake. We thought that was pretty funny since we were out doing some healthy. 25 slow miles in a pretty strong wind

well, to be fair, after 60 miles, i probably only ride about 10 more per week and then i'm spent. maybe i shouldn't join, but i keep fair tracking on my own. i ride for pleasure often, usually about 25-30 mile round trip along the coast, but since my work commute has been so high lately, i haven't had it in me to get out for pleasure. (my ride is very urban and so it's a lot of dodging, unlike when i ride for pleasure and it's on a clear bike path)

I have a knee injury so had to take the week off. I hope to be back at it soon though.

I'd love to join you!! Can I count my Spin Classes..I reckon it's probably about 20kms for the hour.
Hurt my back on the weekend so won't be cycling till Thursday...gotta recover!

Hi eaglemonster,
You can set up a goal on sportypal to track your progress to see how much you're behind or ahead, with your daily rides.
It's very useful...

eaglemoster: I can follow your link to see your rides. I think it pretty fun to see where someone else is riding. Its more fun because, I never been to the UK.
