    I forgot to post last week! I'm still having problems with my right knee after my meniscus surgery so I had a very painful, swollen leg but I did manage to ride on Sunday:

    April 9th - 14.8 miles on my road bike; 56:38; knee discomfort :neutral:
    April 14th - 8.4 miles on my road bike; 36:25; major East wind, 15 mph easily

    MTD = 53.2 on the dot!

    So it's been a while since I posted but here are my rides before I go out today:
    4-15 - 33.8 miles on road bike; 1:58
    4-16 - 6.9 miles Happy Easter. This was actually a fun ride on my Dad's bike that we had to take away from him because his balance is off and he had a fall & got all cut up. Dad turns 90 years old next month
    4-18 - 33.8 miles; happy birthday to me ride!
    4-21 - 8.7 miles; loop around the n-hood; 35:29
    4-22 - 33.7 miles w/my hubs; 1:53; major winds in FL!
    4-26 - 11.5 miles; 43:17; loops around the n-hood

    MTD = 181.6! I have to see where I am with my goal for the month......

    I added another 33.8 miles for Sunday, 4/30 into some of the strongest head winds this year - blowing out of the east southeast at 17.

    Total MTD = 215.4 on a goal of 150!

    I only completed about 1/2 of my expected miles for April. Part of that is having a new indoor trainer which is adding to my resistance and cutting down my miles. And that is ok since it just makes my legs stronger for outside riding. But it having a huge impact on miles. :/

    I'll be lowering my May goal significantly.

    I hope everyone had a wonderful month - whether you met your goal or not - it was still fun riding!! :)
