Well… I did the math and I’ll have to average 164 miles per month every month in order to make 1,500 for the year. I think I can do it! The weather will be getting nicer and nicer and I’ll have more excuses to go out and ride. If you’ll notice I almost exactly hit what should be the average every month which is 125 miles. I’ll need to far surpass that mark the next couple of months in order to be on target. We’re talking a couple of 200+ months.

19.35 | Headed south along the Zumbro then up county 22 to 2nd St. SW north on the highway 52 frontage road to 55th St. I then went through Essex Park and took River Road and hit the bike trail back home. I hit a really powerful tailwnid heading north. I tried to flank the 30+ mph winds on the way home and stay behind trees and houses but it was still a powerful breeze. | Road: Flat | KHS ALite 1000 XC Mtn |
