    Hey everyone, I am training for a 270 mile (3 day) bike Trek this summer. I am curious to how you calculate your indoor ride/cycling/spinning miles? Thanks!

    OK - so now I have looked back at my earlier posts & was at 98.4 miles after last Saturday, so now 128.4 miles & it's only the 22nd of the month. Out on road bike again this Saturday and again Tuesday night to come so hopefully will make the 150 miles I was aiming for.

    33 miles on road bike on Saturday - boy was I tired after that! but there was no walk of shame up any hills & we have HILLS here - and another 10 miles tonight - but there was a walk of shame - but it was up a hill with a 14% gradient - i am determined to get up it without walking by the end of the summer. Anyway total miles so far -- 128.4 + 43 = 171.4 - so I have made my 150 mile target & still have one more Saturday ride to do before the end of the month - I am very pleased to have made my target!!:bigsmile:

    I use my bike on a turbo trainer so my speedo/bike computer tells me how far I have 'ridden' & sometimes my tri club use the spin bikes at our local leisure centre - the spin bikes have a read out that shows calories/watts/cadence/distance 'ridden' etc - not so easy if you don't have a bike computer I guess.

    Hey everyone, I am training for a 270 mile (3 day) bike Trek this summer. I am curious to how you calculate your indoor ride/cycling/spinning miles? Thanks!

    From what I've read most people use a hr monitor and compare it to there outside rides to get a good ball park. I've done this a few times and found that I'm anywhere from 16 to 20 mph, so I just say 20 if it was a killer class and 15 -16 if it was not quite there. Good luck.

    OK - so now I have looked back at my earlier posts & was at 98.4 miles after last Saturday, so now 128.4 miles & it's only the 22nd of the month. Out on road bike again this Saturday and again Tuesday night to come so hopefully will make the 150 miles I was aiming for.

    33 miles on road bike on Saturday - boy was I tired after that! but there was no walk of shame up any hills & we have HILLS here - and another 10 miles tonight - but there was a walk of shame - but it was up a hill with a 14% gradient - i am determined to get up it without walking by the end of the summer. Anyway total miles so far -- 128.4 + 43 = 171.4 - so I have made my 150 mile target & still have one more Saturday ride to do before the end of the month - I am very pleased to have made my target!!:bigsmile:
