Bike commuting to work is the only way I can do it. Gives me about 180 Monday-Friday plus about 80-100 on the weekend. And yes, I'm tired all the time.0 -
Glad to see my brain-child has grown into something much bigger then I ever imageined it. Keep those pedals moving!0

I'm fortunate, in that I only go into the office 2 or 3 days during the week. I budget riding 15 miles on the days I go into the office, which is 62 miles each way (so I can't ride it), and then I'm budgeting 30 miles a day on the days where I stay home. I usually ride twice on the days that I stay home. It all adds up.0 -

Cool. Keep it up.0 -
Had a good weekend and was able to get just over 100 miles on Sat/Sun.
Week 1 Total = 233
I'll need to do a little extra over the next three weeks for falling behind.0 -

I'm in. 600+ miles this month.
Now you're just showing off...
No, not really. Just setting a goal just like everyone else. And 600 is nothing compared to dude doing 1000. I live literally .33 miles from my office. Bike commuting adds nothing for me...
August week 1 total: 165 miles.0 -
16.54 miles tonight - quite humid out and very windy, made for an interesting ride. I've been doing "road biking" with my mountain bike since I started my weight loss mission here. I am looking to upgrade to a road bike, but probably won't happen before it gets cold. I plan on joining my brother on the Pan Ohio Hope Ride for cancer research (this year was 328 miles in 4 days) as my brother completed this event last weekend. Need a new bike if I want to do that for sure!!
Total miles for August = 62.9..........187.1 miles to go for my goal of 250!0 -
Logging 13 miles. Nothing too unusual for this group but it was my first real ride as I'm just getting started!!!!
I wrote on anther thread: Took the bike out today with DH for my first 'real ride.' Earlier in the week I just went around my neighborhood. Turns out I didn't understand how the gearing system works and was riding around in 15th gear instead of 5th gear on relatively flat areas!embarassed I was wondering why it was so hard to pedal, just assumed I was really out of shape, lol. Sorry, that must sound very lame to the seasoned riders out there but I'm over 50 years old and only had a basic bike as a kid. I thought I underdstood it, but add traffic, gravel on the road and a healthy dose of fear and it was all a bit confusing at first.
So, we went out today for a 13 mile ride or so. Took our time and some breaks (saddle soreness even with good bike shorts). It went so well! I was blessed with perfect weather: not too hot, a bit of a breeze, pretty good traffic-wise given it was early Sunday. We took the long way home, a back country road with agricultural fields and beautiful scenery. Scores of bicyclists were headed the other direction, seemed to be some sort of race going on. Best part was that I was outside and loved it! Already thinking about when we can go again!bigsmile0 -
27 hilly miles this morning. Back to work tomorrow, hope I can find time to ride the next 130 miles to meet my goal!0
