Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

February is over and March is finally here. Warmer weather and basketball tournaments are on the way. Let's hear your mileages.

Feb: 415 road miles and countless trainer hours
Year to date: 542 miles

I'm pretty happy with that considering the short month and the crappy weather at times. I'm looking forward to a better March.

69 km. of sourse, it's -6C outside and there's 25 cm of snow on the ground, so you get what you get.

My computer's battery has started to die, so it has shutdown and reset a few times. Strangely enough, I don't miss counting mileage.

Lots of trainer hours...

On the road: 250 or so (also reset battery)

It's getting warmer here...actually what will keep me in is icy patches on backroads. No problem with the roads I use for my daily commute.

52 miles.
Snuck in two outside rides so far this year, and I'm lucky to have gotten that in. Can't be too careful about road conditions in this climate and with a hip replacement!

Last season was a personal best of 3,200 miles. My goal this season is to top that with a nice round figure of 3,500 if I can pull that off....that would be sweet.

Using bikejournal.com to log info, under the user name of Hipcycler if you want to keep track. I'll be viewing the profiles of other BF users there too if you use it.

A little under 600 for the year so far, don't have the numbers in front of me but totalled them up for year to date yesterday. I'm aiming for a 500-600 mile March, but the weather needs to stay dry enough to ride. This winter's trying to erase the drought here all at once.

Yes. Yes we do

My ride last night was made interesting by snow drifting over the path (and hiding the ice), but it takes a lot more than that to get me to ride the trainer.
