Went on a ride yesterday. Made my 5 mile goal. The uphills I deal with around here kill me on most rides. By the end it was really pouring. I think the rain helped a lot. Didn't hear any lightening, though I am the crazy one that has always enjoyed extreme weather. I'd keep riding and be screaming for more. LMAO!!!0

Only got in a handful of miles the past few days, as I returned to the hills of Pittsburgh and have been doing more running than biking. Still, the tune up has worked wonders on my city commuter, and the bottom bracket hasn't been clicking, and the brakes are working better after my tires were trued.
@steffenson - I think I may need to send a few of my monthly miles your way. Not sure that would count though. Still, 3 centuries + 2 metric ones (along with a bunch of shorter rides) is definitely a good way to crank up the total.

Thanks for the thought! I think the new 1,000 mile goal is still possible for me to achieve (if my sits bones hold up) as there are still two weekends left to get a couple more century rides in. It would be kind of a fun number to hit!
