    I'm in. I will set a goal of 125 miles although I am aiming for a lot higher.

    July 2 - 60 min 10 miles
    July 9 - 60 mins 10 miles total 20 miles (I'll have to look at my exercise log, can't believe I haven't cycled for an entire week)

    Missing many days in row has been common for me this year :( So this month I am trying to ride every day. So far I have only missed one day :)

    114 miles so far this month. I'm training for cyclocross, so most of my rides consist of high intensity intervals!

    My long rides come on the weekends. They're really a reprieve from the abuse I take during anaerobic intervals :laugh:

    Update, July 12:

    Month to date: 188 miles/14:22:12/9,452 feet

    Longest ride to date was today's: 53 miles, 4:09:25 riding time, 3,058 feet of climbing. The route and gory details are here:
    http://www.strava.com/activities/165098742

    It was a group ride with a cycle club (I'm visiting Vancouver), so I went at the group's pace and spent a lot of time waiting for slower riders to catch up.
    Sure, I'm in, though with 2.5 weeks travel this month, I'm not sure how much I'll be on the bike.

    Last month: 634.23 miles/47:52:24/23,360 feet

    This month's goal: 250 miles and at least 15,000 feet climbing (gotta prepare for D2R2 in August...)

    Month to date: 43 miles/3:27:10/2,247 feet

    July 12: 16 miles (Wine stop half way in the ride. Plan was 25 miles but wine trumped additional miles but it was worth it.)

    Sounds fun but I think wherever the wine is would be the end of my ride ;)
