Well I finally got off my arse and got back on the bike. I'm so excited, but man that was brutal. 7.75 miles and I feel like I got hit by a truck... and this from a guy who could pull of 21 miles last summer pretty much with total ease.
Still, very psyched to be back on it... also pleased to report that 48 degrees was EASY, so I can probably handle down to about 40 no problem.
I've got a personal goal of 1000 miles for the summer, which is about 30 miles a week assuming an 11/1 end date, so that's pretty doable. I'm tempted to bump it up to 1200, but I figure either it might get colder than I like (esp since I bike mostly after dark), so I'll start with 1000 and see how I do. Maybe 1200 next year.
Anyone else doing the biking thing?
