I think that my riding strengths have out grown the little park here local I was just getting warmed up and it was getting to busy to ride above a crawl

Main problem for me is it takes 2 miles on the worst road in the area for bicycles to get to a decent road to ride on

Having gone into London on Friday to pick up some parts I got home to realise I needed another part. So off into London again today. Much as like an excuse to get out on the bike I really don't like going into London proper. Oh well...

May 03 - 28 miles
May 04 - 18 miles
May 07 - 30 miles

MTD - 76 miles / 338
YTD 1064 / 3107

A quick scan of this thread tells me five 22-mile rides + one 29-mile ride = 139 miles for the month for chefisaac.

I got 17.2 miles yesterday for a total of 67 miles out of a goal of 175.

I broke a spoke yesterday as well. I was still able to finish the ride (only about 2 miles away), so its good to know a broken spoke won't leave me stranded. The bike is at the Trek store now, they said it would be free under warranty, but may not be ready until Friday. I hope it doesn't take that long, but at least its free.

On the board, barely. I think the snow might be over. *fingers crossed*

5/7 ~13 miles (guess, garmin stopped recording for some reason in the middle of the ride, best guess from the map on Connect to fill in the ~3.6 mile gap).
