    21.87 miles this morning. Burned some good cals - visiting my folks in Michigan - my loop today was much flatter that the one back home, but it was crazy windy today because I am by the lake. Good ride!

    275 last month, was hoping for 300.

    i have a week of stay-cation this month, so that should help. I am going to say 350...anything over that will be cake.

    today, 9/3/2011: 26.4, 16.1 mph.

    Wow, those are some really high goals out there! I will be on vacation the last week of the month and have lots of work to do before I can leave so I am thinking f I can fit in 100 miles I will count myself lucky. So I will aim for 100 miles this month.

    6/9/2011 - 24.45km - total 115.64Km (71.84 miles) - horrible, horrible static bike stress testing for my knee injury at hospital - 5 minute warmup and warmdown, with a 10 mile "Keep it at 400+watts" in the middle... Yuk! Then, just for good measure, they stick 3 big needles in my knee, and can't give me any results for a couple of days... I've been happier :grumble:

    Week 1 (Partial) = 88 Miles

    Off to a slow start because I was up at Mammoth Lakes and was only able to get one decent ride in at altitude.

    Should be back on track this week though.

    Ride your bike, measure your mileage, post it on this thread, and keep a running total of the mileage.

    simple ;)

    Well, the first thing would be to set a realistic goal for how many miles you think you can do in September. Assuming you have a bike already, just do as TheBigYin suggests.

    Good luck!!

    9/1/2011 55min indoor cycling class 20miles (approximate this gym has no bike computers)
    9/2/2011 TRX/cycle class 10.2 in 30min (gym with a computer)
    9/3/2011 40k in 1:12:47 (bike leg of an Olympic distance triathlon) (24.8 miles)
    9/6/2011 30miles (indoors)

    total to date: 85 (I wish I knew how exact this was but I generally do around 20mph (in the gym) so I underestimated slighty)
    goal for September: 300
