I'm about 8 mph on more than 10 miles on the roads with the hills, 20 minutes in the car. I already get up at 4:50 in the morning to get ready for a 10-11 hour day. I couldn't ride 2+ hours, work 10 hours on concrete all day, and ride longer home since it would be even more climbing on 3 or 4 hours of sleep. Also I like to see my wife now and then. Kids so she works evenings. We only see each other for dinnertime.


That said, I should have stayed working overtime, but it's Friday and I left after 9 hours and rode. Only rode 10 on the bike trail, but that makes it two days in a row! LOL. Got my part after the ride, a stop to the grocery store, and waved to Wifey as we passed each other on the road.

8/6 - 12 miles
8/7 - 10 miles
8/14 - 10 miles

MTD - 42 miles
