10 rides, 224 miles, 76 miles short of goal, passed up some ride opportunities because son and 8 year old grandson were visiting for 9 days, and GS is a blast. Also, knee pain has slowed me down, but I've gotten a handle on that. 770 miles YTD, goal was 1250. I won't make that goal, but if my body and the weather behave normally, I'm on track for 1100, which will be my biggest year since 1991.

I made my goal of 800 miles for the month on Friday. I had to ride around the block a few times when I got home to get it but there was no way I was going to be short by only a half mile.
