ha - then we're on different cycles (no pun intended (or there)) I'm just coming off a boozing it up and eating very well period, and now intend to lose a few pounds in the next couple of week. Hopefully I'll knock the mid-week drinking on the head for a while now the dark evenings have gone away.

Dead man's shoes? :shock:

Will be interesting to see who falls by the wayside as the year goes on. I'm a likely candidate during the month of July...

some of us will probably not hit that in a year!

+1 for Attica's reinforcement that it's not a race. I'm just doing the miles.......

Dead man's shoes? Nope, more a case of knowing I'll be doing some big mileage in the coming months (L2P being the most prominent example) so I should be moving up a bit..

That's what I'm thinking too [mwuh-ha-ha-ha-ha-haa].

Then I just get the feeling that there's no way I can keep up an insane mileage for nine more months and it's probably going to be a real struggle to hang on in there!

1500 miles?? you have me thinking?

I have slightly missed out on 1000 miles last two months but next is definitely in my sites, just checked rota and only working 14 days in the month and 6 of those I can definitely get 50 mile round trips in, I think its doable. I always need goals and targets and will get my target of 6000 miles in 10 months (currently on track to do it in 6 months) for chairty will help

fancy a challenge running man?

Just asked my girlfriend what she thinks about all my riding the bike etc, she replied "I think your mad!" sums me up completely I think

It doesn't look like I'll make my 200 miles this month target 65 miles to go, only 3 days and I have a just started a rush project so will have no free time for those 3 days.

This is just not acceptable, you must quit your job forthwith, its getting in the way of your stats!

Mine's mentioned the term 'cycling widow' oh dear

saying that she's out tonight and I cycled 47 miles to get home

Rich158

That's the 1000 for the second month running, time to sit back and have a rest

Stuaff, I know exactly where you're coming from, I'm just doing the miles and trying to up the intensity. I might even start dropping the miles off a bit in return for a much higher intensity and more recovery time :shock:

prawny

Eat my stats CiB, for now at least :?

For the sake of your relationship, you need to have a few weeks off. Take your girlfriend out a bit more, spend more time with her - she obviously feels a bit neglected at the moment.

Let me worry about being 9th in the SCS - my marriage is already on the rocks - I have nothing to lose.

What happened to Oddjob62? He used to be well up there at the start, but hasn't updated for ages and even I may even trump him by the end of the month (and I have only just gone back above average since the cull, I was way ahead of it before the cull - thanks CIB!). Looks like the 2 year fight is back on Ince!

dont know if I'm going to make 900 this month . Cycling in this morning something went in my lower back; can now only walk stiffly and am in quite a lot of pain.

Getting home tonight could be interesting!

I would but this job will give me some money to spend on more cycling gear. And perhaps even a new bike.

Well - you need to build on that then. Trust me - less cycling and more quality time with the one you love is the way forward.

No, more quality cycling with the one you love is the way forward.
It's one of the reasons we have a tandem.

I'd love to have a go on one of these:

Do tandem miles count as double or half?
