April 2018 100+ miles / kilometers thread

I'll get us started this month by setting a goal of at least 275 miles. I'm doing the "30 Days of Biking," so I'm hoping I'll be doing a lot more than 275 miles. So, having said that.....

April 01 = 14.02 miles.

MTD = 14.02 miles of (at least) 275 miles.

These threads are inspiring. Thank you all! I’m so far behind you all but I’m getting there and pushing for more miles each month. I hit 135 last month with 50 of that in the last week. I finished yesterday’s 20 mile ride by dropping my bike off for a tune up so I’m taking a couple of days off. Goal for the month is 130.

I haven't joined one of these goal threads in a while. Last time, it blew up in my face. Ended up with a stint and a bum foot, took 4 surgeries and almost lost my foot. Still in recovery from it, but I'm determined to bounce back and reach a goal this month.

I'm shooting for 50 miles. It should be low enough to reach, but still a challenge after almost a year out of the saddle. Wish me luck!

4/2- 3.6 miles

MTD- 3.6

Well, thanks to a diabetic episode that kept me off the bike yesterday, that takes care of shooting for 30 straight days for the 30 Days of Biking campaign, so I'll now just concentrate on training for my TdS ride in June and getting at least 275 miles for the month.....

April 01 = 14.02 miles.
April 02 = 24.48 miles.
April 03 = 8.49 miles.
April 05 = 13.58 miles.

MTD = 60.57 miles of (at least) 275 miles.

One thing that sucks about going out of town is that I don't get to do any riding. So here we are at April 10 without having ridden a single mile. My last ride was Mar 31st in Zwift.
