    First off, some amazing totals by so many (and some great efforts even without the huge mile totals)! Some awesome stuff there.

    I had my original goal of 200 which I hit kind of early. I reset it to 300 and ended up the month with 335 miles and at an average 18.1 MPH. Next month I'll be travelling a lot, so I had to go for broke this month. It's so hard to try to predict time available and set a reasonable goal. Just started to use a HRM and my avg rate was 147 last night. That seems to high, so I'll have to start figuring out how I handle this new information (starting with finding my max heart rate). I feel great after my rides though. Advice there would be welcomed.

    It does not look like bike weather to me. So, my challenge ends at 226.66 miles.
    Less than 14 miles to the goal, less than a commute ride. Less than an hour ride.
    I think the bike season is over for me sadly.

    MTD: 226.66/240

    October was a very poor month for me, bruised ribs kept me off my bike for a while before damaging my main chainring on my bike, because I ride a old hybrid sourcing the right chainset became a marathon task but finally managed to get one on ebay 2 days ago and now I have my baby back, bring on November :wink:

    Here is the link to the new thread:

    http://www.myfitnesspal.com/topics/show/1128712-november-cycling-challeng-2013

    October was pretty much a bust for me. I'm hoping for better this month, however, with winter coming on and the children's schedules, that may or may not happen.
