06/01 - 4.96 - TERRIBLE!!! Another blow out getting really tired of it. Always the rear tire.
06/02 - 42.27 - Great BUT Windy ride. Goal for the day was 50 miles but got leg cramps at the 39 mile mark. Good thing I was only 3 miles from home. Also figured out the blow out issue. Tire Pressure. Switched to Gator skins a few weeks ago and had pinch flats 4 times out due to lower air pressure in the back. Will now be checking pressure before I go out to ensure rear is at least 110 PSI as it seems anything lower causes flats. This is a bumpy ride but I will have to adjust accordingly.
06/06 - 2.74 - ride was more like 7-10 miles BUT my Wahoo Bolt went dead
06/09 - 25.57 - good ride only 1:35 - I have to make time to ride more
06/12 - 16.1 - first time riding before 5:30 am. I guess you could call it "fasting" cycling. Did not eat before but felt GREAT before, during and after the ride. Rain potential shortened the pre-work ride.
06/14 - 16.27 another pre-work ride taht wend great!!
06/16 - 35.11 - when is summer going to hit in SE Wisco!!! 55 degrees, rainy and windy. Still pushing through though.
06/19 - 11.16 - another morning ride and the weather was perfect, little breeze, slightly overcast AND NO TRAFFIC!!! Tomorrow starts Tour of Americas Dairy-land Crit Races. First time going so this will be FUN.
06/20 - 3.75 - Just a short one to get a hair cut and watch the races!!! Crit racing live is AMAZING!!!
06/21 - 30.46 - Late start, decent ride in less than 2 hours. Gotta get better!!! Only 12.5 min of stoppage time.
06/23 - 64.53 - FIRST METRIC CENTURY!!!! done on accident but fun. Cannot carry a pack on my back when riding that far. Shoulders are the only thing that hurts. Gotta find a club that I can ride with to get better. 4 hours 35 minutes with almost 40 minutes of stoppage time.
6/29 - 26.29 - very first Group ride. did not do too bad but could have done better, will be joining this group every Saturday Morning, when possible.
6/30 - 15.19 - bad last week of the month!!! only got out to ride on Saturday and Sunday. Been feeling out of place due to blood pressure, working on getting that fixed and ready to complete the goal of 300 outdoor miles.

Monthly Goal - 300 - plan is to ride during the week on 5-10 mile routes as well on the fitness bike just to stay in tune. Overall speed and cadence is up tremendously since the start last August.
MTD - 294.53
