5/14: 14.3. It is hot. I was going to do about 30 miles but felt "off." I turned around in five. Then, did a few short errands via bike. Tired today.

I really appriate the comment, as I am a believer in rule#5 but I was really miserable on that ride, and I havent gotten my head right since. Need to get back to focusing on the fun factor and less on the results and the numbers. When I find that right ballance my head should come around. Knock on wood, so far so good this week!

Back on the bike after a week off due to severe hip pain.
May 14 = 16.11 miles.
MTD = 69.89 miles.
Now I'm gonna have to bust some butt to make my goal for May.

My monthly Strava goal is 260 per month. But I am hoping to do 750 Kilometers for the May Massive so I can have a cool roundel. That is about double my monthly, then I am going fishing. Vegas is getting too hot for afternoon rides this time of year.

Took the extra long way to work today for a total of 96.8 miles and 1,896' of climbing https://app.strava.com/activities/54439459 Steady headwind in the morning so the ride to work was slow, and darn it I was a few minutes late. Much more fun going home with a tailwind pushing me along.
So far this month have 1,134 miles on the odometer.

Didn't really feel like riding today but once I got out there my legs started pumping and everything felt good again. Parts of the ride seemed like a time trial, trying to keep my speed over 20mph for as far as possible. Most of the time when I slowed down it was either because of a hill or traffic, a good day today. Good enough to make me wish I'd gone out earlier and gone further.

I've managed 100km in 5 hours but that's a far less impressive average speed, even though it included a brief cafe stop at the halfway point.

5/16 - 44.6 miles. I rode the Mule to Angletech to get the oil changed. The Alfine 11 hub, that is. After that I rode a rocky, technical trail through Ute Valley Park and I really noticed the difference. It pedaled easier with smooth shifting.
