After 6 straight days of riding we're taking 2 days off due to fatigue and appointments. Legs were a bit heavy last night and we had some things planned today and tomorrow so we rode anyway. I already feel like I haven't ridden in a week. Am i addicted?

June 1 - 19.8 miles
June 2 - 2.1 miles (headed out on our normal loop and the clouds started gathering, possible t-storms, went home)
June 3 - 43.4 miles
June 4 - 43.7 miles (My first flat tire, 5 minutes and was on the road again. Big enough chunk of metal that it may have ruined my tire)
June 5 - 12.9 miles (had chores to do, cut it short)
June 6 - 19.9 miles (big snapping turtle on the trail!)

MTD - 141.8 miles
Goal - 500 miles

Just started riding consistently. Current goal is commute to work 3 days a week. Since this is my first week, the goal for June will be 264 miles. (~22 miles x 3; x 4 weeks) Anything over that is gravy!

June 05 - 22.3 miles
June 07 - 21.9 miles
June 09 - 21.53 miles
June 12 - 10.75 miles - broke 3 spokes on the way to work; took it to the LBS the next day
June 22 - 0.0 miles - got the bike back today but not riding; taking it to Colorado next week though!

MTD 76.48
Goal 264

Okay, I am in. As a long time reader and infrequent poster I need to set goals to help keep me on track.

53.68 miles for 3 rides so far this month. So I guess I need to go for 220 but dependent on knee/meniscus pain.

6/9 35.4
6/10 10.37

MTD - 99.45

6/3 = 68 miles. Shaved 12 minutes off the same ride last week. Feeling a lot less fatigued too, as evidenced I spent time in Z1 for the first time (5 whole minutes, but still!) and added speed for more or less the same effort level.

6/6 31 miles. Typical training ride
6/9 39 miles. Good ride! Shaved 10 min off this benchmark ride, AND my heart rate was 5bpm lower average. Really felt good on the bike today. Nasty headwinds 15+ on the last 12 miles of the ride, and I still maintained the 15mph average.

137 miles total.

Managed to squeeze out a metric before work yesterday; 115km SS. Currently longest ride to date and thus longest SS ride too. Pretty pleased.

Sitting at 270km for the month so far. Pretty pleased.

Thunderstorms and super high winds kept us off the bikes this past weekend. The winds themselves don't bother me so much, the falling trees and limbs do. We will try to ride tonight, hopefully there isn't too much stuff on the ground. After any wind events there are trees down on the MUP we ride. I've even had to hop off the bike to go under a downed tree. Don't that to take one of those to the grape.

June 1 - 19.8 miles
June 2 - 2.1 miles (headed out on our normal loop and the clouds started gathering, possible t-storms, went home)
June 3 - 43.4 miles
June 4 - 43.7 miles (My first flat tire, 5 minutes and was on the road again. Big enough chunk of metal that it may have ruined my tire)
June 5 - 12.9 miles (had chores to do, cut it short)
June 6 - 19.9 miles (big snapping turtle on the trail!)
June 9 - 20 miles

MTD - 161.8 miles
Goal - 500 miles
