    10 days left of #30daysofbiking! 175 miles to go to 600, so 17.5 miles per day? There's rain lurking in the forecast but fingers crossed I'll make it.

    Also did some jewelry shopping on etsy that arrived recently. I think it's trying to say something. Sometime like I'm obsessed with...something.

    Will there be another challenge like this in May? I'm just starting out cycling - mainly on stationary bike at my gym currently as I get used to the very small and painful saddle on my road bike! Since we are only 9 days away from the end of the month, I don't think it's a good idea to suddenly join now but would love to do this in May! It's so inspiring seeing how everyone is doing!

    @tcaley4 - Still had rain and thunderstorms in the area, so back to the stationary bike. Due to my recent crash, and aches and pains that followed, I'm fairly certain I'm not going to make my goal this month.

    Sure hope you get feeling better from the crash.... we are getting the rain yesterday eve into today. My goal this month is looking not so good either.

    Keep up the good work and let yourself mend!

    I about shared your pain last Saturday at a intersection on a bike trail in Evansville. I was at a crossing, cars had a red light, I had the cross walk sign. There was a pickup truck stopped at the light and just when I was at the curb he pulls out to make a right turn on red. I stood on the brakes to keep from broadsiding him and just as my bike was angling down my clip in popped open so I kind of hurdled the bike and stayed on my feet but the bike went down.

    4/21 - 17 miles - I love biking after a spring rain. I do not, however, enjoy the mud stripe up my back after said ride. So very much looking forward to getting my Gunnar up and functional with fenders this weekend. I ordered purple bar tape and treated myself to a new purple pannier to go with it. Just need some purple pedals and purple bottle cages and it will be perfect.

    Month to date: 442 miles
    Year to date: 1008 miles



    @tcaley4 - hope you're feeling better soon! Maybe a massage is in order?
    @clarepearhealthkick - there are no rules for the challenge, join whenever you'd like! Just so long as you enjoy being on a bike, welcome!
    @SteveCro - ugh, cars. That's all I got to say about that, otherwise I will go on a pages long tirade against inattentive drivers *rrrrrr*

    Hi guys!! Brand new to this thread.
    I'll sign up for the May thread but I wanted to know if there's a group for cyclist. I didn't quickly find it.
