Sorry I didn't get this started earlier today y'all. I was too busy sulking and pouting and throwing a tantrum.

I'm off the bike for a break until later in the week. But that doesn't excuse the rest of y'all!

    I did 12.7 miles this morning with my husband. We rode the course for the triathlon we'll be doing on 9/28. Nice and flat.

    I only did 6 miles today, but it was a rest day and I just wanted to do something light.

    I'm comitting to 40 miles this week and at least one spin class.

    I got back in the saddle today after a break--got in 19 miles. Humidity is still just unbearable! I came home and was just dripping sweat. :frown:

    We're supposed to start feeling the effects of TS Hanna tomorrow and Saturday it's supposed to come right near us-so looks like no biking for me for the next 2 days anyway.

    10 miles today, for a total of 26.5 for the week (plus one spin class) against my 40 mile goal. I think I may have set the bar too low. The weekend is coming!!!!

    It's raining like crazy here and getting windy. DH and I are planning a 65 mile ride tomorrow. It should be clear and sunny by then, but I'm concerned about standing water and downed trees.

    I can't believe how cold it is here already. I'm not one to hop on the bike when it is 30 degrees outside when I wake up!
    But I gave it a few hours and bundled up good. Did a loop up in the Park for 27.5 mi today. And last Tues I did a section of it for 18.4 mi.
    I am hoping it warms up so I can do one of the canyons for about 43 mi before the season is over. Definitely enjoying the new bike so far!

    30 degrees? WOW!

    We've "survived" TS Hanna--some rain, windy all day--steady 30-40 with gusts to 51 mph. I told DH I was almost tempted to jump on the bike and catch a tail wind!! :tongue:

    Lots of limbs down here, too. We're going walk around our little town in a bit and see how it fared.

    I definately set the bar too low this week. I'm currently at 36.5 miles this week plus two spin classes. My goal was 40 and one spin class. Since I have a two hour ride scheduled for tomorrow I'm sure I'll blow through the goal. I'm going to think about what I want next week's goal to be.

    My husband and I just got back from a 67 mile ride on this beautiful day! That puts me at 93.1 miles this week.
