5/1 26.19 miles, 2487 feet
5/2 20.15 miles, 597 feet
MTD 46.34/450
Speed increases are coming in chunks now. These hill repeats are something else. An hour and a half doing them each week is like magic.

two miles on 29 year old Centurion Le Mans (made in 1985) that was all nicely tuned and had a rear derailer replaced. Rolling resistance was great and I was getting some speed.
Note to self: 1) put on cycling shoes and shorts next time 2) drink more water
While I am winded I am smiling from ear to ear.

I'll set my goal for 325 miles this month. That's just a little more than last month, but I managed to put in about one hundred non-commuting miles last month, and I'll have to work at it to do that again...
5/01 zero miles. Shamefully! The weather was perfect, but it was my day off and I spent most of it sleeping.
5/02 9.5 miles on my usual ride in to work

A great weekend camping! Only 10.24 miles with about 3.5 on trails, the wife and I rode, hiked, fished and enjoyed cooking on a fire.

An awesome Saturday! [/sarcasm]
Wife at work all day. Kids not home all day. Beautiful out, not a cloud in sight.... for 20 minutes. Then it's torrential downpour, heavy winds, and even hail for 20 minutes. Then beautiful again for 20 minutes. Rinse and repeat all day long on Saturday
The water in my pool was sloshing around so bad that it looked like the ocean in an out-at-sea storm.
Then Sunday it was all day mowing the field that I use to call my yard.
MTD - 0

Not a great ride today. Fun when the roads opened up a bit but horrendous traffic and horrible headwinds. The traffic eased up after a while, the headwinds didn't...
05 May - 27 miles
MTD - 27 miles.
