looks to be 5 steps per block about 10 blocks....must be weeks.

AH -Are you going for 1000 miles/month every month?

 

[Auntie Helen]

mds101, I wasn't originally planning to go for 1000 miles per month but after the first month it felt a bit wimpish to do fewer miles, plus I got used to eating all the extra food to fuel me for those miles. I fear if I go down to 750 miles I might put on rather a lot of weight!

That looks like it. But given they've made the monthly graphs neater and tider looking, it seems odd that the year has turned slightly messy. I'm sure it used to be a smooth line, like the monthly graphs. Plus mine seems to shallow and has the make a leap at the last momentto hit the target figure.

Oh well, I don't really care - was just curious - and wiggly graphs are way down on the list of thing in life that need fixing

 

[mds101]

I was looking at longest ride this month....how do people do 250 miles, is that in a day? How many hours of riding is that? How come peoples legs don't fall off?

AH....extra food, mmmm, I like food far too much. Need to shed a few pounds (and a few more) really and finding it harder the more I ride, I get home and I'm starving. Hope the weather picks up for you as May goes by....I just stare open mouthed at some of the miles that people manage.

Have a chat with The Three Mousketeers - Aperitif, arrallsop and ilovebikes. They all did 250ish each on one ride this month.

Your 165 on a fixie is by far more heroic or stupid.

Should be able to put in three 100 mile weeks and just reach my target, although it is going to be tight.

Looks good AH, though Keith Oates!!!!!!!!!! get's the award for putting in the most measly target v normal performance.

You've snuck ahead of me, that's what happens when I work from home for a week. Think I may be off out for a pottle now

 

[Sittingduck]

Looks like I'd best get my finger out! Back down in London as of Today so I now have access to a bike again. Will be out tomorrow & Sunday. Although I'm about to go out for some belated Birthday Beers so I will have to wait and see how I feel in the morning

 

[ianrauk]

no way I am going to reach this months (and Junes) target, due to the fact I am spending 2 weeks driving around the deserts of California, nevada, Utah and Arizona... and have not been able to commute a few days this month due to meetings at work...how crap is that?

 

[MacB]

SD, enjoy the beers and then ride them off, I can vouch for the therapeutic impact of exercise on a hangover - hurts like hell to begin with though

Ian, disappointed your not touring the desert by bike - have a great trip.

AH - you seem to have slipped back to third I only managed 20 miles, had planned on 30 but the wind and rain got a bit severe.

 

[montage]

Having to restrain myself from going out at the moment... knee is sooo nearly better, just one more chilled out week! Started swimming in the morning before college to maintain fitness - hopefully I will pursue this so that I'm not such a flop in triathalons when it comes to the swimming....sprint training on the track was soooo tempting tonight Well a good 30/40 miler tomorrow, and a gentle 50ish on sunday...then we will see.....fingers crossed! (if all goes well then it is back to race training )

I think I'd better rethink my target, say 1200??

 

[Auntie Helen]

I think Dudi needs to rethink his target to 44!

 

[MacB]

I think Dudi needs to rethink his target to 44!

harsh, but I like it, as long as he's not doing an Aperitif and saving up a bomshell for us.
