April was my best month with 616. To my surprise, June hasn't been my worst month so far. Even so, must do better this month.

Well you've made a cracking start to July :tongue:

March and April were best for me, both 620+ miles, so far this year I have bettered the previous years figures each month, doubt I'll sustain that for the whole year but been good trying to :thumbsup:

I think May/June have been my lowest cycling months and I can't see July being more productive.

April/June poor due to the amount of rain for me! Newborn has also changed the frequency I can get out these days.

Absolutely crap few months of cycling from me, mainly due to shift change at work and the bloody weather. My commute is only 1 mile each way, so the majority of my cycling is for pleasure. April, May & June last year was 969, 864 & 902 miles cycled. This year it's 460, 449 & 290 miles. 290 miles, in June for christ sake, & July isn't looking any better. I'm getting really fed up with this weather, and to top it off I've put on a little weight:sad: :rain::stop:

Just reach the halfway point of my target.
Am way behind last year but this is due to my knee problem.

Good going nonetheless. I'm about level, I think. Not setting a target, as I know I'll end up getting all competitive on MCL and the (BikeRadar Commuting) SCStats anyway...

I am experimenting with working harder on the bike (i.e. keeping my HR above 150) to see if I can speed up a little generally. I've been doing this for a week or so and trying to do a 20 miler each day at a good pace (for me), i.e. averaging about 12mph. Obviously if I'm cycling to somewhere where I have to be off the bike I don't work as hard as I don't want to get too sweaty.

Anyway, it seems to be working as my average speed for July is 12.16mph and was a lot more before I went out for a ride with my husband today (much slower); I think it was about 12.5 before that, and that's after 160ish miles. Recumbent trikes can be hard work and I am rather tortoise-like in my riding sometimes but I think this might be making a difference. I am certainly getting up hills a little faster.

Well I've dropped about 20 places since the start of June. Cycling basically went out the window due to the missus walking out on me. I've not had any free time to myself for over 3 weeks - I'm either working, on call, or being a part-time single dad (to a demanding 2 1/2 yr old) the whole time. And to make matters worse I've been smoking too. Bad times.
I'm going to get back into it next week and give the fags the boot. New fixed machine to help give me some motivation. I'll be back.
