    I think it involves being locked in a padded room with said cyclist rocking gently backwards and forwards in the corner muttering 'I can do 1500 miles this month.......no realy I can' :wink:

    Me, I saw the men in white coats coming and made my escape :lol:

    Think I'm going to have to defer the 1500 til July though I suspect I'll be frustratingly close this month. I'm going to be on 1000 by the end of the week but I've got quite a few meetings arranged in the final week of the month (bad planning I know) and I need to start tapering down for the Dragon as well.

    Pah you're all going soft :wink: Tapering for the Dragon already, sounds like a poor excuse to me, that's still 3 weeks way

    It was never like this in my day :roll:

    you're still in this thread? :lol:

    Yes. Miles on the bike is miles. But not turbo miles. They don't count.

    Edit - I reckon JoGLE counts as a proper bike ride in anybody's book. Good luck with it.

    I commute on an old MTB just for fun,so i never have computer on this bike.I count this as time off for good behaviour on the road bike.Nothing wrong with a dunce's hat,if you keep your head down the pointy end cuts through the air better allowing a faster walking speed :lol:

    I'd forgotten how far left there was.. and the morning rides are just extended by time.. if I happen to be out earlier I'll sneak a few extra in

    Jon I was planning on weights today, but I guess that can be done tomorrow.. hmm
