Tough March
It has been a bad month of March for outdoor riding for me. With days in the 20's and 30's, or rain it hasn't been a great millage month outside for me. When the temps are in the 30's or lower I can only do short rides outside because of my asthma. With the roads being wet dirty and salty on top of that I was on the single speed most of the time. So todays temps hit 45, YAHOO ! I can go for a longer ride on the road bike.

I ran more than I rode!! Not what I was hoping for....getting snow tonight, so looks like I'll be running for another week.
|
12-18? :eek:
|
I am waiting for the weather we had in February to return. Here in Central Illinois March was rain, cold, and wind but being a runner first I have been able to average 40 mile weeks running no real cycling days to cut into that.
The bigger thing I got my new Habareno Ti yesterday and I need to get in the maiden voyage and get a report out. Pics in the Road Forum. |
Most of my mileage in March was on my resistance rollers. The bike and I stayed clean and dry. It rained double the normal here in March. I went on a long wet road ride once a week, though. I just can't ride rollers 3-4 hours continuously. Some people can but not I.

Although I have no video, I dislocated my shoulder skiing in France in mid-March. A bummer of a month for cycling...:cry:

Above average rainfall in this town.
|
Way above average temps here (GA) this whole year so I'm about 1,000 miles ahead of my last year's totals so far.
|
I'm already 600 miles behind last year, hoping for a much warmer April.

Well... I put 900 miles on my CX bike since Thanksgivings. Not bad for my first winter of riding. I hope to get the road bike out as soon as road conditions allow.
