    It was perfect riding weather in Fort Worth this weekend: 30 Miles on Friday and 30 Miles Saturday. Raining today and all week, but planning to be at the spin class Tues and Thurs.
    Enjoy your rides!!

    Man, it's looking like May weather in March. Revising my initial plan of 250 up to 400 miles. Currently theoretically training for a sprint length triathlon in August, my first century and bike camping sometime this summer, so I'm thinking of actually trying for different kinds of rides on the weekends, like hill workouts and speed stuff? Should be interesting!

    3/3 - 15 miles.
    3/5 - no biking, slipped on ice, bruised my tailbone. Spent the weekend avoiding any pressure on that area
    3/7 - 30 miles - beautiful beautiful day. Currently 64 degrees! So beautiful that everyone in Minneapolis was out around the lakes today, making it a bit slower of a ride than I'm used to (I normally bike around the lakes before work when there aren't a ton of people out). Took my road bike out, and for the most part my tailbone only hurt when going through potholes or powering up hills. Only found 2 patches of ice. Keeping my fingers crossed the good weather holds so I can keep doing the long routes to and from work and racking up lots of miles.

    Month to date - 45 miles
    Year to date - 350.6 miles

    Got in a handful of ballpark commutes Sunday and today.

    With about 3000 miles on my road bike since my last tune up, and a ride across the keys planned for this weekend, I ended up dropping off my bike for a tune-up today with my friendly local mechanic. I knew I needed a chain & tires, so I brought one along (9 speed ultegra), along with some replacement tires (michelin krylions). So far, the ride quality on the krylions is a bit stiff, but reasonable, and I'm glad I've switched back to 700x25s from my 700x23s. Given the job he did, I'm going to bring in my tri bike to him tomorrow to upgrade my 105 front & rear derailleurs to dura ace, along with an ultegra cassette & chain that just arrived in the mail today.

    3/1 - 50 miles (30 w. group, 20 evening spin)
    3/2 - 25 miles
    3/3 - 21 miles
    3/4 - 41 miles
    3/5 - 13 miles
    3/7 - 23 miles

    Total: 173 miles
    Goal: 600 miles
    Remaining: 463 miles

    Dura ace drivetrain upgrade now complete on my triathlon bike. Need to do a bit more rear derailleur tuning (as there are a handful of gremlins between 4th & 5th to eradicate), but happy now that I'm done getting that bike's groupset upgraded as far as it will reasonably go.

    Hi everyone I lost track of where this thread was posted and just discovered it again today. I thought it was under fitness and exercise but now I know it is under the challenge section.
    Boy my distances are so short compared to everyone else. However keep in mind I am over 280+ pounds so I am just glad to be able to be on a trike.

    3/2 - 2.93
    3/6 - 2.81
    3/7 - 3.68

    Total for the month so far 9.42 miles
    Goal for the month 25 miles
