hah, no. carbon boy has over 1k this month!

So that's about 700 miles this month. Do I win?

I still enjoy the competition though.

As I said earlier, next month I may lower my goal to around 800 because two full weekends I'll be getting my SCUBA cert.

442km so far this month and now that its September 30 I don't think I will be reaching my 512km goal. Was a little over optimistic there, still, I'm pleased with my efforts and with one more 12km or so ride to do tonight I'll make it to over 450km which feels pretty good. Hope everyone else went well with their goals this month, yay!

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:

4 yesterday and 11 today brings me 208 for the month!

Does this challenge happen again in October?

24 miles today, totaling 472 for September. 28 miles short of my goal but I'll take it anyway. Shooting for 500 miles next month too.

finished another 18 tonight. 372.4 total this month. goal was 300, so i guess i did OK.

tonight's ride was short...more of a warm up for tomorrow. assuming the weather cooperates, i am going to try to start of october with a 1/2 century. i've ridden 43 in one shot...assuming i get it done, tomorrows ride will be the longest to date. wish me luck!

congrats to everyone that is meeting there goals...well, except carbon boy...he just makes me ill!

who's starting a thread for october?

419.22 Total Miles 31.82 Total on bike Hours

Great month.

Did not lose many LBS but lost inches.

Two more weeks till Century ride 100 miles in one day.

Cheers
Jim

With the weather change coming, I think my goal for October will be between 250-300 miles. This month was my best yet. I probably will not have another near 500 mile logging until next year. Congratulations to everyone who accomplished their goal this month.
