CYCLOGS

[TVC]

All done, I was in and out within 90 mins and it was a lot better than I thought it was going to be Can't say I intend going near the bike for at least a week or two though

A mate of mine had it done, but kept gonig on about how he was getting his wife to help 'drain the system' - I've no idea what he was talking about

My monthly target

 

[summerdays]

Well for the first month since Jan ... I've made my monthly target (I went around the block twice to add on half a mile last night just to get there - yeah!!! Now I've got to see how many miles I can claw back from those down months.

I'm about 200 miles behind or about a month for me!!! - I know for some of you its just a day out!

Well there was me thinking I'd be racking up the miles on my German cycle tour but it doesn't seem to be happening. Still I have written up the last three days' rides and have jumped ahead of Aran20 again which gives me an enormous sense of wellbeing to go with the large bar of chocolate I have for later.

Probably can't update the my rides every day as internet cafes seem a bit few and far between here in Rheinland-Pfalz. I rather hoped to get ahead of Arallsopp by the end of this week...

22.15 miles to go then. Whilst I have the commute home tonight it'll still be under 40 between us. Work commitments suggest I won't be riding in on Thurs or Fri, and I'm booked on domestics all weekend.

I reckon you've got this one easy. 4 hours with your feet up, and its yours.

Hi Guys,

I've started entering my training rides (not my commutes) into CYCLOGS. I don't think I will be anywhere near the top, any time soon! B)

 

[Sittingduck]

Nice one Magnatom. Why not the commutes though? Scared your very respectable avg speed will decrease? B)

Ha! It would decrease my average a bit, but not by a huge amount (although this depends on the bike I'm using!). But is more the hassle of entering all my commutes, and the fact that I'm keen to have a clean record of how my training/weekend riding is going.

 

[Sittingduck]

Fair play, fair play... the council for the Prosecution has no further questions B)

I was going to to say it'd be nice to have some company down here at the bottom of the table - but i see you're ahead of me already. Grr.

I'm logging every ride - mainly commutes, family commitments mean I've not managed much/any weekend riding. I've been trying to extend my 3 mile commute, sometimes up to as much a 15 mile detour - and was hoping to finish in the top 50. Now it look like I might have to settle for being able to finish is the fifties.

Got a social CTC pootle to the pub tomorrow evening, that ought to help.

(If you can be bothered, you could sign up to cyclogs twice and log commutes and training under separate accounts - might be interesting to see how your training affects your commuting speed)

Sorry!

Actually I have some old commutes on there from 2008 where I was averaging just under 13 mph. I'm now averaging between 14.5 and 15.5 mph depending on weather and bike. I'm not sure I could improve this much more as the average is kept down by traffic lights and traffic.

 

[grhm]

That is the trouble with commutes - all the other traffic get in the way - shouldn't be allowed!

Mags, enter all your rides just make sure you have different descriptions for them on your log. That way you can see your stats broken out by commute/pootle/training/tt/ or any others you fancy. I also list per bike and am thinking of doing per saddle as well

I know the leaderboard page will only show one total and one average speed but that doesn't matter.

 

[Auntie Helen]

Well I'm peeved that Aran20 is ahead of me again, despite me being on a cycling holiday. I console myself with the fact that I've got a 20kg trike lugging around 15kg of luggage plus all the kgs of me, complete with cake, pizza etc. Plus me as the pilot!
