Ugh, I haven't gone any further than to the store in the past 11 days, what a wuss...

47 miles so far. I did 960 last month, this is embarrassing.

Today my new SPD pedals arrived, so I took them to the LBS to buy some SPD shoes and get everything fitted. Then took them for a maiden voyage - not far, just out to meet my wife as she knocked off work. She works with disabled people, some severely so, and one of the ladies she works with has taken a shine to me, so I did a double-purpose trip to see my admirer.

Then took another brief spin having made a small tweak to my cleat position. Loving these SPDs already.

June 06 - 28 miles
June 13 - 32 miles
June 17 - 5 miles
June 18 - 26 miles
June 20 - 5 miles

MTD - 96 miles
YTD - 1920 miles

6-20 was finally a day with almost no wind so I celebrated with a longer after work ride home, adding 20.35 miles for the day and 725' elevation gain. Today dawned also nearly windless and is expected to stay that way until tonight so I should also have a good ride this evening with the LBS group.
