Need to get caught up:

May 20: 12 miles
May 21: 7 miles
May 22: 7 miles (both of these days I rode to work but then afternoon thunderstorms made me puss out and call my wife for a ride home.)
May 26: 15 miles
May 28: 15 miles

May total: 106 miles

This was a pretty pathetic month, I just didn't feel the same motivation to put in the garage miles.

5/29 - very short 10 mile recovery ride. Was a good boy and resisted the urge to ride more miles; did what I needed to to ge tthe blood to the legs and no more.

May Goal: 450 miles
May m-t-d: 370 miles. I will miss my goal by one ride, which I missed this weekend.

Thanks.

The cycling challange has helped me more than I expected. From here on out, I am going to be expecting 250 to 350 mile months. It's paying off on the waist line and in the group!

Both of you guys need to pick up the slack for those of us who failed (i.e. me). Great jobs P & Flee.

We had nice weather this month and that had a lot to do with getting out more. The challenge does help motivate a bit too! This was my best May total ever.

Thanks P - not done yet, but I will be short by that one ride probably (unless I break my training schedule and ride tomorrow just to meet this goal - unlikely because I have a group training ride on Friday).

5/30 - 36 eq. spin miles

May Goal: 450 miles
May m-t-d: 406 miles (90% of goal with 97% of month gone by)

no doubt he did. But I guess it's all relative. Over 400 miles!!! wow....and thats the goal? WOW! I guess it took me riding 300 + (i got another ride planned this month) to realize how many 400+ is.

Kaiser, some day...i'm gunna do what you do. And my MTB buddies are gunna be scratchin' their head when I am dustin' them.

I have learned that what K considers a bad ride would be the equivalent of my best ride! I too can't get over the volume that K puts in.

Flee - the way you are going, you will be dusting the roadies too!

That would be soooooo noice. I have dropped many a rider on a mountain bike. I believe my skills set me apart in that arena, not that I am amazing. But on the road....I can say I have NEVER put the hurt on anyone. I would LOVE to ride away from someone on the road. I guess I should set my sites on that.

Side note. Since the middle of last month....I have lost around 5 lbs. Which is darn near perfect. This riding thing is paying off.

From 197 to 192lbs.
