    I absolutely love cycling. In the summer months, I will ride approximately 100km per week. For some reason, i just can't get motivated to go to a spin class. I do have a recumbent bike in basement. I will join this January cycling challenge and dust off the bike.

    My goal this summer is to complete the Toronto Island Olympic Triathlon. i really gotta get on the recumbent bike. I will aim for 50km per week starting tomorrow. :)

    I have been using the Expresso bike in the gym. It was 2 degrees this morning in South Jersey so outside riding does not seem like an enjoyable activity. The plan i to up the miles and then do the New York TD Five Boro Ride in May 2014 (45mile)

    I spin twice a week (about 15-17 miles each time) and also take my bicycle out a few times a month. Living in Arizona definitely makes for some good riding weather.

    I would say I log about 150 miles a month give or take a few miles. I've never actually added the numbers up but they sound good considering I didn't think I rode that much. :-)

    I would like to add more road rides into my routine as I love getting out in nature AND the giant cicadas are finally gone for the year! They are everywhere on the roads from the middle of summer until late November. They make an especially disgusting crunch when running over them. *shudders in disgust* They also have a tendency to jump on me during my rides which makes me almost crash each time. There is no easy way to shake one off while riding and I panic.

    If you do not have experience with the TD 5 Boro bike tour. Please be aware that it is an astonishing amount, in numbers ,of cyclists. This is a major cause of accidents during the tour.

    No 'real' cycling miles yet this month. I've been a wimp and stayed indoors out of the rain & gales we've had. 35 miles on the exercise bike so far (plus a bit of running). Hopefully, first proper ride of the year tomorrow up in the hills.
