    I'm in. Aiming to hit 200 this month. I made 120 in September and am already at 50 this month. Finally a breeze of coolness in the sunshine state should help me add miles.

    I'm a little tired for too much typing... but according to wahoo... I've ridden 190 miles in the last 8 days. I rode 35 today. Glad to find this thread. If any cyclists are looking for mfp friends send me a request!

    After a few days of missing bike commute, finally I had two days of opportunities. I'm still way behind of "schedule".
    I did a bike ride this Saturday to catch up some of it.
    I rode to a beer house, drunk two pints, and came back today.
    Looking at my food log today, it proves me that you cannot outrun your fork+mug. :-b

    It's getting cold and I don't like it at all.

    Oh well, been ill all week, so everything took second place to trying to get better...

    I thought I'd try an easy get-back-into-it ride today, but unfortunately, it is raining cats and dogs here today.... wish I had stationary bike or something here...

    only ride of the week
    Mond 7th: 21 km

    total so far this month: 66.5 km :-(

    Looks like rain coming for the next 3-4 days though. SAAAAD FACE! :frown:

    And that's exactly what happened! :mad: 5 days of straight rain and no rides or any other form of exercise. And boy did I fudge up on my diet as well. I did it up right! Oh well, first cheat days since before summer. But today I'm back on the saddle again!

    I guess that's the good news as far as my business trip this week goes. It's raining at home anyway, so I wouldn't be riding even if I were home. At least now I have the possibility of going for a walk this week.
