So where's everybody at mileage wise to date?

I've got just over 2000 road miles in so far this year. Well below my target. But I've got a week long bike tour and three centuries scheduled for September so I should be between 3000-4000 by mid October.

mondeo · Aug 13, 2008

I'm at around 600. Been a rough, partially unmotivated summer. Sick for about a month, then busy at work, then rain. Almost did 100 last weekend, but screwed up my ankle. Scared me for a bit, but should be back on the bike Thursday/next time it's not raining like India in monsoon season.

256, but I didn't start until the middle of July

256+18.2 (today@14.5 mph)= 274.2

You must be a youngin, I used to do stuff like that when I was in my late 20s early 30s.

jplynch019 · Aug 16, 2008

Sorry to say, I just turned 50 in March. Just applied for my AARP card (strictly for the discounts of course). 240 in a week is easy when you commute to work 40 per day round trip(plus another 40 for fun).

I don't "feel" a day over 23!

Greg, the (mtn.) biking season never ends, the clothing just changes with the seasons.

I got out this morning for the local woods for a good hard ride for an hour. Only stopped once I think when I had to get a stick out of the derailleur.

Got out yesterday for a gross, hot sticky ride in the woods. Not that long since it was so hot and gross...probably about 55 mins or so. Had a good ride on saturday as well.

I have no idea how many miles I have in the woods.... I have about 2000 so far on the road bike. Probably end up with about 2500 for the year on the road. (I do stop riding the road, once the temps really start to dip, but we do go straight through the winter in the woods).

Yeah, I can see that some ride all winter. Once the ski season starts though, the bike will be put away. I actually had some fleeting thoughts that I might ride during some January warm-up or something if the trails melt out. Two problems with that: (1) We're definitely not having a January warm-up this season as it will be far below average from November through April :razz:, and (2) in the very unlikely event we do get a warm-up, I'll take the opportunity to ski some mid-winter spring bumps down here. I love MTBing, almost as much as skiing; almost being the operative word.

marcski · Sep 15, 2008

Of course.....skiing rules, always will.

That being said, you can do both throughout the winter. Ski one day, ride another. Also, snow shouldn't keep you out. Depending on the "conditions" some snow is great to ride on...we even do some of the slick rocks when they are covered with a solid layer of snow.

As a family man, I've got a certain number of "chips" to cash in to do my "thing". In the winter, they are used for skiing. I suspect by spring, I'll be looking forward to MTB; just like I'm looking forward to skiing now.

Good Morning!

32° F this morning at 5:30 AM in CT for the daily commute. Sky was dark and clear. Saw a shooting star (meteor)!. Traffic was well behaved. 20 miles went by like nothing. Can it get any better than this?
