Rough day yesterday. Just for kicks am attempting to cycle a minimum of 100km a day for the month of May. Yesterday had a one day work trip out of town, which meant I had to get up extra early to get some miles in before hitting the airport in the morning, then get the rest of my miles in the evening. On top of that my workhorse road bike is in the shop getting fixed so am using the heavier cross bike. Squeezed out 63 miles (101 km) in the dark.
Mileage for May so far is 1,574 miles with 53k ft of climbing.
Currently sitting in 16th place on the Strava May Massive challenge.

Both Strava challenges are tough. The May Massive leader is at 3,812 Km in 32 rides. I know I don't have the time to ride an average of 75 miles a day.

5/22 - 20.70
mtd - 95.46
ytd - 1712.69
Got into a fight with my bike yesterday morning. I went to top off my tires before my ride and the pump refused to release from the valve when I was done. I had to brute force it off and of course I managed to bang myself up in the process. I have a lovely bruise on my wrist to show for it. Oh, and I tore the valve stem out of the tube. So I called it a loss for the day and quit before I really got hurt. Few things make me feel so stupid as tangling with inanimate objects, and losing.
Had a lovely ride today.

So far in May I have done 261.98 miles. I have an event on June 1st so I will be slowing down before then so I may not make my 401 goal. I should make it if I keep my same pace going. My weight loss has stalled at 310 - 315 lbs because I am eating too much and too much junk, but overall I am down from 360 lbs.
MTD: 371.89 mi.
YTD: 958.23 mi.
Weight still stuck at 310 lbs., but I am getting really pumped for my first century at that Dirty Kanza on June 1st.

I started out at about 305 a couple years ago. I dropped down to about 275 within 6 months...and stayed there for over a year. I was riding about 200-250 miles a month, and watched what I ate, and the weight simply wouldn't come off. I decided to change things up...I cut back on the riding, focused on hiking (pretty steep hills - 2,000'+ in 2.5 miles) on the weekends, and changed my eating habits. I started losing weight again, and am down another 16lb in the past few months.
