Dang. That's a big week. I've done 20 hours once and I was pretty wrecked from that. Is this a big week for you, or do you routinely rip through some serious miles?
And thanks, here in CO we got plenty of hills. Starting to get back some of that fitness (and weight loss) that I had from before my crashes in Mar and June. Was going pretty damn good in February, more power than now and was at 63kg/138lbs. Feel so draggin at 71kg right now...but considering 6 weeks ago I was almost 76kg, that's good progress.2 -
Got 7 miles in on the road yesterday and got a quick 7 mile trail ride in today after work.
Been adding my miles up wrong for the last 2 weeks or so. Corrected them again!
On a good note, I have blown my July goals up!!

Best bike has gone in for servicing and repair.
Started creaking and at first thought it was my wonky knee! Then hoped it was my saddle but sadly it's the bottom bracket. New cassette and chain also required.
Just as well I have a spare (you can't have too many bikes after all....) as this weekend was warm but humid.
40 miler and 60 miler done but really hard to drink enough.
Bit of running around on my hybrid too, forgotten was a nice ride a hybrid is in an urban environment.
MTD. 7 Hours - 113 miles - 19 Personal Records - 7 Activities
YTD. 156 Hours - 2,565.9 miles - 283 Personal Records - 131 Activities
Got my bike back with lubed/adjusted bottom bracket, new chain and cassette and it's riding like new again.
Just in time for.....
Drove down to Winchester and did a cut down Audax route over part of the South Downs and Salisbury Plain. Stunning scenery, great roads and incredibly low levels of traffic. One of my best ever rides but more challenging than I expected. Only one really big hill but there was a 10 mile uphill drag and constant ups and down that broke my rhythm. 84.5 miles, 31 Strava PRs, 4472' of elevation, 5hrs 40min.

I was aiming for 300 this month, but got derailed. In part due to a 54 mile ride today, though, I managed to get to 248mi. And tomorrow will be a rest day, so that's my tally for the month. I can live with that.2

I didn't make my goal but I'm very happy I got out as much as I did. I think I set myself too lofty of a goal and 15 hours per month is much more reasonable for mountain biking time.
Looking forward to August!1 -
