9/4 - 17.33 - brutally humid after a humid/rainy holiday weekend with family
9/8 - 22.52 - rained for 3 days straight - extremely windy day (gusts up to 25+ MPH) but the longest ride since returning to the saddle a little over a month ago.
9/10 - 17.58 - slightly windy but great day for a ride in less than 1.25 hours. Daylight is getting slim after work.
9/15 - 19.16 - great day in SE WI but also humid
9/16 - 25.52 - early day of riding and weather was great, new PR for distance and felt pretty good
9/22 - 25.76 - nice chilly morning to ride
9/23 - 11.77 - anniversary weekend days getting shorter in the Midwest and working hours increasing not a lot of time to ride
926 - 12.25 - daylight is in short supply.

MTD - 151.89
Goal 200 miles

Made my 50,000 ft/400 mi goal today. But my weight crept back up to 200#.

Didn't really have a goal at the start but I think it turned out well. Including my first commute in a downpour without fenders.

198.8 miles in September - 16.4 yesterday. It was cold here, and I didn't put on enough layers. If I had realized I was 1.2 miles short of 200, It have stayed out 5 minutes longer. 970 for the year. October goal: 130.

I missed my goal by a bunch! Forgot to factor in rain, which we haven't seen much for the summer. We definitely got some in September.

9/29 - 23.93 - first time on a road bike and it felt great. It was a custom Giant Propel from a LBS who races. out of my price range but it was a great ride.


MTD - 175.83 - missed the goal but learned to ride a road bike!!!! I am changing over for the next season. No more fitness bike moving to the road/endurance type bike.
Goal 200 miles
