    What started of being an easy recovery ride turned into a bit of a TT. Oh well my legs still feel surprisingly good :-).

    Only just found this, so I'm a late starter this month.

    Did a 20 mile ride today - would like to hit 200 miles for the month but think it's going to be a challenge (wish me luck).

    7/1: 30.52 miles (adjusted this since I repeated the portion of it I'd had to estimate and now have a more accurate number)
    7/4: 25.12 miles
    7/5: 29.94 miles
    7/8: 15.37 miles
    7/9: spinning (doesn't count for miles, but I'm counting it toward cycling days)
    7/10: 16.90 miles

    Goal=250 miles and 16 days; Now=148.71 miles and 7 days.

    July 10-5 miles to work 5 miles back home. 10 miles total for round trip.....

    July 11-5 miles to work 5 miles back home. 10 miles total for round trip.....

    July 15 --5 miles to work but the last half mile was on foot, because I got a flat... changing the tire later at work to find out how bad a flat. I had to carry my bike, so it had to be similar caloric burn... :)
