Got back on my bike for the first time in a week. It has either been mid to high 90s F, with a heat index way over 100, or pouring down rain. Felt great. 😊1

Power outage due to tornadoes Friday eve to Sunday eve. Back on the bike Monday. Seems my record was already not up to date, so will have to check my notes and get back to you on what my time and mileage stands at.1

I've been like a bear with a sore head the last few days in the run up to my biggest event and training goal for the year (Velo South closed roads Century) as the weather forecast changed from almost perfect to awful.
It's now been cancelled due to:
– Constant wind speeds as high as 38mph (just think of those wind assisted PR's!)
– Wind gusts as high as 53mph
– Heavy rain throughout the event
Sensible to cancel as it would have been carnage but it's disappointing. I've now booked myself a 5 day cycling holiday in SW England otherwise I would feel all my training has been pointless.
Should be fun as it's a new region for me to explore.
Sorry to hear that ... but enjoy SW England!1 -

I haven't quite given up on chasing my climbing goal for the month....
Four big climbs today in the Surrey Hills A.O.N.B. - gorgeous scenery and roads really quiet today.
3 -
Sorry I havent posted much here. Been very busy at work and with life in general. Little time to visit MFP, but plenty of time to get my morning rides in.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Managing five rides per week and 2 gym sessions on my "off" days. My Garmin connect calendar is full of pink boxes for the month.
Totals for Sept 3 to Sept 9: 123.62 miles
Totals for Sept 10 to Sept 16: 123.80 miles
Totals for Sept 17 to Sept 23: 127.49 miles
So far over 4 rides this week: 90.19 with a 45 miler planned for Sunday.
I think I am right in pace for the century I am training for on Nov 10.
Net results of my training: down 9 lbs in 5 weeks. Got another 5 or 6 to go.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Sorry to hear about the cancellation Sijomial. I would be disappointed too. Actually a dear friend sent us an invitation to his daughter's engagement party on the day of my century and I politely said no. Ill send my wife by herself. He couldn't understand that I am choosing to ride my bicycle over his party.
Livingthedream: re:Glasgow. This morning I was looking at airfare from California to Edinburgh for May 2019. Im sure we will visit Glasgow too. My nephew's wife is in a doctorate research program in St Andrews for a couple of years. Were coming to visit. Good excuse to tour Scotland.
Deceived1: How are you doing with the clipless pedals? I have stories too...... Some other time......I'll try to come back in a day or two and keep up with you guys.

Well done!
Are you into Randonneuring/Audax?1 -

Congratulations Awinner_au. Way to go. My longest is still 102 miles.
I got a 44 mile ride in this morning. 4 consecutive weeks ridding 5 days or more per week. But rain predicted for several days this coming week. Ive finished many rides in the rain, but I wont start one unless I am absolutely sure it is just a passing shower.
Total for the week: 5 rides 134.20 miles.
Total for September 2018: 21 rides, 531 miles, 34,145 calories (Yeah sure.... I don't trust Garmin). But I am down 9 to 10 lbs for the month. so maybe......
Keep going guys.

Well done!
Are you into Randonneuring/Audax?
I would love to Audax but all the NSW rides seem to be on Saturday, i work Sat afternoons. Couple of the guys on the ride were Audaxers, they reckon that it is more forgiving than a group ride as you get to set your own pace, i would have certainly appreciated that yesterday.0 -
I haven't quite given up on chasing my climbing goal for the month....
Four big climbs today in the Surrey Hills A.O.N.B. - gorgeous scenery and roads really quiet today.
Managed to hit my climbing goal as last day of September was also first day of a cycling holiday in Cornwall. There's plenty of hills here for sure but strangely very few cyclists.
8279 meters of climbing, 41 hours and 628 miles for September.3 -
