New milestone!! almost 14km

[esaunders]

Finally broke the 10 km barrier!!!! :giver:

Took the dog out for a bike/run and felt so good that I went back out on my own for an official total of 13.5km YAY!
And I threw in the hills, the park, everything.

The advice to concentrate on spinning is working REALLY well. You guys rock!!

Good job, before you know it you'll be doing 100km! :)

Well done. I managed 25km the first time I got on a bike after being sedentary for quite a while. I thought I was going to die. I've kept at it and am now doing 200km a week and my longest one day ride was 250km.
I'm not special. Keep going. Keep enjoying it and keep reaching for those milestones. It becomes a habit and I find a get a bit annoyed if I don't get a ride in for a couple of days.

It's guys like you that are the real inspiration of the Clyde forum.

Rock on Erica, wont be long befor you hit 25km, then 25 miles.

Keep up the great work!

Thanks!

Its only been 2 months and my distance is up almost 5X what it was in the beginning. I'm still feeling really good today so next week I can officially start commuting one way to work, and soon both directions!

Oh yeah and I had a slip and fall (non-bike related, tragic Dim Sum injury:injured:) 1 1/2 weeks ago that had me on crutches for a few days which makes the milestone all the sweeter. :speedy:

That's great - congrats. Funnily enough I did a hilly 13.5 km a couple of weeks ago - I'm aiming for 10 miles this weekend with the same hills.

You're definitely right about the spinning - that's saving my knee :)

The progress feels good, doesn't it? :)

Yay! Keep going!

I can always tell when I've been mashing; my knees start to ache. Keep spinning and they don't.
