    I can't ride in this heat. I had to quit. I am having trouble breathing while it is so hot and humid. 114 yesterday. Set a high record. Will try to exercise when it cools off some.

    Rode 30 miles tonight, for a total of 121 for the month. Finally cooled down here, so it is easier to ride.

    You are moving along pretty good with some good mileage so far. Keep it up as I won't be able to keep up with you. Going to doctor as I may have a sinus infection.

    Not being able to breath through your nose while riding stinks. Especially this time of year when all the bugs are out...

    Should be 140 for the month. Thought I had a sinus infection with a sore throat and ear pain. Wife was diagnosed the day before. I am lucky. I went to the doctor this morning and I just have swimmers ear. Painful but still went out.

    50 miles for the first week of the month. Really not very interested in being on my bike right now so I need to find some motivation to get riding again. Seems like there is always something else going on lately so working out has fallen down on my to do list.

    Looks like everyone is getting some great miles this month. Keep it up!

    Motivation is always my problem too. I've lost 75 pounds, and so I already feel a lot better. I still have 160 pounds to go, but since I'm able to ride, I feel really good. So, I set higher goals for myself, and I just keep riding.

    If you figure out the motivation thing, let me know. I don't have the answer...

    I get swimmer's ear about every 5 years. I hate it. I hope you feel better soon. Mine always takes about 3 days to clear up once I'm on the ear drops.
