100 Plus Mile Club: January Edition: Strap on the Studs and Lets Roll!
This month YOU pick the miles you want to do. Make it a challenge... and have fun and be safe.
For those in warmer climates... stay cool and people in the colder climates, stay warm! "What ever the mind of man can conceive and believe, it can achieve." -Napolean Hill Who's In???? Iron Chef: 200 Miles |
I will go for 300 miles this month. Most of these miles will be on the rollers since the roads are all covered with ice and snow.
|
My modest goal is for 210 miles per month for the next year, only about 50 miles per week. That will give me a yearly total of 2,500 miles. A modest goal, which should be easily accomplished.

My goal is 3000 miles for 2012, averaging 300 miles a month for 10 months a year. This month my goal is 300.
January 1: 13 miles, planned more but a flat tire. This flat was moderately inconvenient as I brought no tools because spouse would pick me up if I had a problem. Well, his phone was off! @#$%^&! I walk a mile and a half carrying the front end of my bike up and got bit repeatedly by mosquitoes. Then I got rained on. Jaunary 1: 4 more miles. Total, 17 for the month. I snapped at the spouse when I got back to the rv. Never again will I ride without what I need to fix a flat. Happy #$%^&* new year. :) |
gold: you should carry all that stuff with you girl. Cant rely on the spouse. :)
|
1-1-12: 17 miles.
|
200 miles, all trainer since the trainer tire's on and I won't change it till Spring. Oh, and 30 miles walking.
|
I'm in but due to a couple of family issues not sure what kind of mileage I'll achieve. 100 should be easy, I'm hoping to get more like 250 but we'll see.
|
cont: I KNOW you can do it my friend!
|
In for the 100 Plus. Strap on the studs is the plan as I just took a spill on smooth tires while clipped in, poor judgement on the turn, didn't think a little slush was going to be a problem. Got in 9.2 miles however. Next 2 days will be snow so time to use the studded MTB. Plan for month not to fall down.
|
line: did you slip on the front or back tire? I am scared of that too. I need studded tires too.

My goal this, and every, month of this year is to do at least 333.33 miles in order to realize my yearly goal of 4000(+) miles.
|
line: so you slipped on your road bike? And your mtn bike has studs? Are you putting studs on your road bike?
What studded tires did you go with? |
300 miles
some indoors some out weather dependent Its a lofty goal for me as Im 35 pounds over weight smoked for 39 years and havent rode a bike more than 4/5 times a year for the last 37 years |
Shooting for 300 for January. First ride tomorrow.
|
Does indoor count as well ?
If so, I'm in for a 100 |
I would say indoor does count. Riding is riding even if it is "riding"
:) |
I'm in, don't have a goal this month though.
01/01 - 42 |
January can either be a horrible, ice filled nightmare or just cold. I'm shooting for 150 miles this month but hopefully more.
|
200 miles a month this year is my goal. I finished 2011 with 2042 miles, going for a modest increase, and hopefully I'll do much better.
2 miles in on a test ride of a friend's bike I worked on yesterday! Ha! At least I started the year out with some time in the saddle! January month to date: 1/1: 2 mi |
100 miles a month? I'm over 1/3 there already... 300 mi/month average would be nice. However, 今年我要到中國去和研究. That could throw a wrench in my mileage.
January month to date: 1/1: 42 mi (and boy do I hurt... Damn headwinds) |
Chef,
Put me down for 200 miles for January. |
1-2-12 13.06 miles - Snow/Ice/24F. Feel like I earned every mile.
January total 22.26 |
Count me in for at least 100. 22 yesterday. NOT supposed to be able to ride 22 road miles in January in the Colorado mountains. Oh well, skiing can wait.
