Yeah, I got 2 hours on the calendar today... going to need the headband, shoe covers, tights, full fingers and jacket.

Sucks. At least the roads are drying up.

424 miles total for April, first real solid month of riding. Kinda light on mileage but the quality of the miles has gone up a lot over last year. Last May, which is when I really started riding last year, I had about 470 miles but virtually no speed work. This April I was doing intervals twice a week at least. Plus two of those rides were off road.

So far on the year, 664 miles total, 48 of which were off road.

What's your typical year look like for miles on the road? 2-3K?

I did a little over 3 last year. I was kinda shooting for 4 but I got side lined with a knee injury for the best part of two months. Two injuries actually. I'm focusing on quality of miles more than total miles this year.

Westchester County, NY and a Mountain near you!
I am thankful for today's rain. My body is still aching. Got out tuesday, thursday and then on my Friday morning before work ride, I experienced some momentary operator error while I had s but more speed than expected and I flew over the bars. Got bothe shoulders, s knee and an ankle...and s hior to s lesser degree. But, despite some very painful first steps on saturday morning I hoped on the road bike and did my "regular ride" which is about 28 mile with about 1850' of vertical. I was pooped and hurting saturday night but I think I was better off for it yesterday morning when I got out for a solid mounatin bike ride in the single track and the hills.

Due to rehabbing the knee, I was trying to cut back on physical activity now that ski season is essentially done excepting hiking to Tucks which is just not doable for me right now. My PT gal says that is great but I should still ride the bike as that actually would help. COOL!!!

So I went right back at it where I left off. Hill workout today with a 19.25 mile loop including a 3 mile stretch of 700 vertical gain without relief. The down on the other side was quite a ride with the same vertical down except only in two miles. Watch out for that nasty turn and sudden intersection at the bottom of the hill. :eek: I think I still have brake pads... but that hill is going to get expensive.

19.25 miles in 1:12:54 for 15.81 MPH. Not a great speed but considering 700 vert in a three mile stretch... I'll take it. :D Only 51 miles so far this past month but ski season is almost over and I can't hike on this knee, so cycling is going to be my thing for a while. I anticipate a lot of miles being racked up!

Farking cold out there today. Good thing this is a rest week. Easy day yesterday, moderate today, off tomorrow and Friday. Easy Saturday and then MTB race in RI on Sunday.

815 miles on the year, 55 trail and 760 road. Way more intensity than last year.
