Watching TV while on the bike is actually nicer than sinking into the couch and getting all stiff.

I have a funny story. My bike has been making a lot of noise.. It turns out I wore out the chain. I never ever wore out a chain. I guess I should change out my chain earlier than 4000 miles. I have one on order and will change it this week when all the parts come in.3
-
@RMUNTZ2 Yeah, they wear out - if you can find one, get a chain measuring tool so you know when to get it done.
Forgot to upload yesterday's rides. Got yesterday and today's here.

*No link for Big Spin rides because there’s many, and they’re short. If interested to see that they’re real, please see my Strava profile.*2 -
Thank goodness for all this Zwifting - it's pouring like crazy outside. Guess my bid to summon the rain gods yesterday by daring to water my lawn worked.
One workout today because I have lots of other stuff going on.

My hope was to get two rides in yesterday but that didn't end up happening. No morning ride today either. The work week is getting ahead of me already!
I'm so impressed when I see everyone else's ride lengths! My plan is to build up to 15-20 miles as my regular, but first I need to get used of doing this often again
Here's yesterday morning's, hope for another tonight - https://strava.app.link/T6sf7Mwetlb

One ride today - Zwift meetup. Would have ridden to and from the pool today, except it poured yesterday so the trails are pretty much underwater and I'm not willing to get soaked on my way back from swimming.

After Taekwondo last night decided to hop on the bike. Was trying to push myself a little, but I think I was already pretty tired. Averaged 11 MPH which *is* faster than usual. Working to raise that number though!

I was sick for over a week there and I missed 4 full days without any kind of exercise as I had no energy. Got back on bike on Thursday and again yesterday and planning another at some stage today.
@wendsg - Congratulations on your 1st 2024 miles of the year!1 -

@Mari33a Thank you! Here I thought I'd snuck completely under the radar with that first completion.
So sorry to read that you were sick - at least you're back on the bike again!
Yesterday, completed the Assault on the Carolinas. Today was a Zwift workout to continue the 'pedal every day' nonsense I've dedicated myself to doing.
