I’m going to try to get 1,000 miles this month. I’m not sure if I’ll make it or not, but I’m going to try. I’ll have 48 continuous days of riding today. I’d like to keep that going and have 79 at the end of May.

GOAL: 1,000 miles

My goal is to begin eating again and getting enough fuel into myself to allow me to ride my bike.

I think my biggest month has been just over 200 miles .
I admire you guys that can ride the distances you achieve.
I’ve gotten to where if I ride more than 6-7 miles in a day my knees bother me and sometimes it prevents me from riding the next day . .
I hope to average five miles daily , that will give me 155 .
I hope to take two days a week off to give my knees a rest

For May , I’m setting my goal at 150 miles .

My goal for May is 300 miles. Depending on how things go in May, I should be able to increase my goal for the year, which I had set at 2100 miles, to something more than that.

May Goal: 300 miles

May 1 - 15.6 miles

May to date: 15.6 miles

2020 to date: 581.0 miles

2020 goal: 2100 miles

All my miles are outdoor miles, on a 2011 Fuji Absolute 3.0 unless otherwise noted.

My Goal for May is 220 miles. I am going to have a few days next week where I can't ride so this will be a difficult but attainable goal.

April started out pretty good, then fizzled out about mid-month. Here's hoping for a better May. Goal is 250 miles.

May 01 = 11.47 miles

MTD = 11.47 of (hopefully) 250 miles.
