    After riding to work this morning - I am up to 210 miles for the month. With less than half the month to go 450 is gonna be tight. Attainable but difficult.

    I think I can get to 300 by the end of the month! Hope this heat breaks soon. An hour-long ride was all I could handle today and Saturday!

    I added 14 miles yesterday. I'll do it again today, but I won't add them until they're done. That ride to work isn't too bad - only 85 degrees. However, riding home yesterday with a temp of 101 & a heat index of 108, that was like cycling in a convection oven!

    Rode 15 miles this morning, bringing my total to 402 for the month. It is really hot and muggy here near St. Louis, so I'm riding early and late to get in the miles. I hope the rides are going well for all the rest of you, and that you are staying safe and hydrated.

    You can do it. That's only two laps around Walnut Creek each night. I'll even come do some with you.

    I rode another 7 miles tonight, starting at 10:00. While it was still humid, there was a nice breeze, and it helped keep things a little more cool. 409 Miles for the month now.

    A little more then 20 miles to go for me on this challenge - and good timing too because I'm about to be on a camping trip in a week. Thinking about trying to get this hammered out this weekend in one run. Thoughts?

    7.4 Miles completed last night. A little over one more Mile needed before I hit my goal! It's been a great motivation.
