Just started biking this summer after 3 years of doing nothing at all which made me unusually weak. I am concentrating on the stationary bikes at the gym to learn my limits. it is easier to over-exert at the gym and step off the bike than bonk on a real-life ride and still have to get home. My machine is a recumbent trike, a personal preference.
Goals - do HIITs every other day and a leisurely ride outside on Saturdays.0 -
10.1. 28,5 milen at average speed of 13.1
Goal this month is to raise my average speed0 -
Missed my goal of 120 miles in September.
I will keep the same goal - 120 miles for October.0 -
I'm in again! I am going to shoot for 100 miles this month. Hopefully the weather cooperates enough to at least get close if not go over!0

Last month goal was 240 km/150 miles, sufficiently low to accomodate my busy bride-to-be schedule. Now that the wedding is over, I have more time but it's darker and colder everyday, so I'm not sure if I will be able to ride much more.
I'll go with the same goal for October, and I hope I'll be able to ride all month long, because November will probably be shortened by snow.0 -
I actually was going to quit this challenge but OldDogSparky went and called me an inspiration so now I can't quit. Haha. Thanks, Sparky.
Weather-wise, October should be the perfect month for getting some miles in here in Alabama. Still, being the (disabled) wimp I am, my goal will be 40 miles. I will revisit that goal mid-month.
Good luck, good health, good travels, and no dogs or squirrels everyone!0 -
10/2 - 4.0 miles at 10.1mph listening to Guardians of the Galaxy soundtrack on my Walkman (which has external speakers).
Goal for October = 40 miles.
MTD = 4 miles.
Still want to accomplish = 36 more miles.0 -

... and because you are awesome!
Goal 400 miles, MTD 49 Miles. Guess I need to start wearing my earbuds so I can listen to some Fleetwood Mac while on the road (at least some of the good stuff that's as old as I am).0 -
I had planned to start commuting this week now that the weather here in Phoenix is no longer hellish. Unfortunately, I injured my hip running last weekend. Rest for the next week and a half and then I'll reassess.0

Aimed for 500km last month and ended up doing over 900km - was such nice weather it would've been criminal not to use the bike at every opportunity.
This month I'll keep it the same so a target of 500km.
Good luck all!0 -
Sour September ended with a crashed and broken bike and 45 stitches to the eyebrow and a nice scar to remind me of how fragile we all are and to always put safety first. But after a few weeks on the mend and a new used bike procured. Today was the maiden voyage and I am once again throwing my hat into the ring.
