Well my first ever 100 miles in a schoolweek commuting. 26 miles per day, 4 days. I drove in on Wednesday as I had to go somewhere after work.

Maybe I'll do a 5 dayer soon too. Only my 6th week in total, although I did about 20 days from my last house between August and October last year of 10 miles each way.

I'm pleased. Been well and truly bitten.

    Good effort. Where are you on the Stats board though? Come on.

    Low but rising fast!

    It takes a while for the muscles to be able to do it. It's actually my 5th week rather than 6th too.

    Good stuff.

    I try to do 4 commutes a week each involving a round trip of just over 28 miles. I cant do a full 5 days as I need to bring in a change of shirts, towels etc.

    I have made a real effort to use the bike more for work now that filling the car up also involves bending over and lubing up !

    My best month so far this year was May when the bike clocked up 635 miles and the car just 135 !

    Keep it up fella :D

    Hey, maybe you haven't been keeping up on current events, but we just got our asses kicked, pal!

    I will. Thanks for the support.

    Someone needs to glue my VISA card into my wallet as I keep buying cycle related things.

    You may as well get used to that!

    I'd just managed to wean myself off box swapping my hifi every few months too!
