As of today I'm at 302 miles.
This is officially my biggest mileage month since I started tracking 3 years ago!
And there are still 5 days left

482 miles for July
Had the front tire skid out on me on a turn, now sporting some new road rash on right side.... probably done for the month.
Amazingly, the bike took almost no damage, the rear derailleur scuffed up a bit and the pedal too. Wrecked the shirt, helmet, and need a new lens for the sunglasses

My personal record setting mileage month continues and I am up to 344 miles as of this morning. Rainy days, which I will never complain about, held me back from longer rides the last few days but I will hit at least 350 before tomorrow evening.
As an aside current weight is 244, feeling great.

(Also, I get the rainy day thing. Living in the desert and all. However, when we're getting 1-2 cm of rain in 20-45m, it's causing issues as people's front gardens get washed into the streets...)

Congrats everyone on making your goals. If you haven't done it yet there is still one more day. I see that we have more than 4000 miles in this group so far.
