March Goal: 240 miles

3/1 - 12.0 miles (Trek FX2)
3/4 - 17.4 miles (Trek FX2)
3/5 - 10.4 miles (Trek FX2)
3/12 - 22.5 miles (Fuji)
3/14 - 40.6 miles (Fuji)
3/16 - 33.0 miles (Fuji)
3/23 - 21.0 miles (Fuji 12.2 miles - Trek 800 Antelope 8.8 miles)

I'm going to have to kick down to get my March goal, and hope for the best with the weather! Rain is not my friend - but I know it's necessary and good. If I can get six days of riding weather by the end of the month, I can do this.

March Total to Date: 156.9 miles

2023 total to date: 524.5 miles
2023 Goal: 2,000 miles

All my miles are outdoor miles.

191 miles as of 3/24. Got an outdoor MTB bike ride in yesterday but it was just 9 miles for 50 minutes but well worth the outdoor time in 76F!

3/2 - 15.4 mi.
3/5 - 24.1
3/24 - 7.0

MTD: 46.5
Monthly Goal: 250 mi.

It stopped raining! 19 days off the bike, that's pretty sad, but it's not supposed to rain again until Tuesday. I'll get some more miles in, but 250 looks a little unrealistic this month.

All right, hit the goal early. Now trying for 200 miles.

I picked up my 2021 Trek about a year ago. I'm just shy of 3,000 miles on it.

90km this week, 242kms mtd, 720 ytd
-.4lbs this week, -3.4lbs mtd, -13.8lbs ytd

I'm way off my monthly goal by about half.

I used to ride my bike a bit during my lunch break but I've shifted to walking around the park across the street from my office.

Next weekend is the Pacific Populaire, with distances of 25,50,and 100kms. I've done the 100k twice but this year I'm opting for the shorter 50k.
