Though I'm still getting my bikes sorted out mechanically, and I had a lot of travel in the first part of the month, I let the Trek challenge on Strava push me over a hundred miles in July. This month I'll just let flow more naturally, as I still need work work my base back up before I should really start pushing.

I suppose it'll help that my little cutoff route I'm using for this has a little bit of climbing, though not bad. about 431 ft in just under 13 miles, but mostly concentrated in one spot, so mild hill repeats every lap. Back in Clovis, where I was riding with my brother, the same ride would yield about a tenth that much elevation. Pretty darned flat, but the wind could easily make up for that.
But... I digress!

Gonna try for between 100-200 this month.

8-3: 26 mi
8-11: 20.5 mi
8-18: 17.3 mi (been doing more hiking this week)
8-24: 7.2 mi (still hiking, managed to get my wife on her bike today, so short ride)
total: 71.0 mi (slow start this month)
