I did it!! a084.gifa084.gifa084.gif

I broke my old distance cycling record!

I put in 3 loops around my house today--the area around it--each one was 21.6

WHICH MEANS I RODE FOR 64.8 MILES!

Took me 5 hours and 10 minutes total--I took breaks at the house between each loop. Drink a total of 140 ozs of water plus 50 ozs of Electrolyte stuff. Got plenty of snacks on my break.

AND....DRUM ROLL PLEASE!

I DIDN'T HAVE A LOW! That's right, not even near to passing out on the side of the road like last time I tried this!

I also racked up 2,953 exercise calories!

Bids are now being accepted for extra exercise calories because there's no way I'll eat all of that!

    LOL Great work Shore!

    Needless to say, I think tomorrow should probably be a rest day for you.

    Thats awesome, I got a bike today with a child seat and helmet for my lil man cruised around a bit and burned some cals It was so great!!! I am going to try and beat my amount of riding i do but is it normal to get a sore butt from riding. My mom said I would get used to it if i kept riding my seat is pretty wide though maybe my hip bones are in the wrong spot or something did anyone else get this problem?:blushing:

    Oh yes, sore butts are the norm when you start! It goes away after a bit. But even after almost 5 months, mine occasionally gets sore. I got this stuff off Amazon.com called BUTT-R. It's a heavy cream you rub in {those} places and it helps! You put it on before the ride. Has helped keep me from developing "saddle sores"
