Well done Jason, what is impressive is that most of your k's are commuting ones!

I'm happy with how I'm tracking for the year, getting the distance done mixed in with training and racing.

easiest time for me to do them with family commitments. it's getting more difficult to stay 1000kms ahead of you though...

Stop crashing then. You could have been 2000km ahead

i don't plan to crash. unlike someone I heard who propels themselves down hills at 90km/h

The benefits of route knowledge on an aero bike

[gretaboy]

Am hoping that, if I ride and dont chicken out, I will click over ten thousand k's for the year on my morning commute tomorrow. I am going to click over 9000 commute k's this afternoon.

Never ridden so many k's in my life.

[jasonc]

so half way through the year and am 1600kms up on my goal. every month has been 1k+ (just)

Got to 5000km for the year this week...
Cycling goal and weight loss goal firmly under control and in sight...
Reward will be a new road bike...

Good stuff, what are the plans for the new bike??

A Pinarello. Currently thinking the Paris Red with Ultegra DI2.

Time to step it up, I want to come in early...

Very nice, both the frame and group set....lucky you!

[marinmomma]

Halfway through the year and I'm ahead of my target, not going to up it as the next 6 months could mean less riding for me during the week depending on where/when/what I'll be doing employment wise I may have less time available for riding!
Recently left my job based in West End which was awesome to fit in my training before work.

Haven't been successful at convincing Mr MM that I could stay home permanently, !

[jules21]

well i'm back on the bike after 2 months off with ankle wound/infection.. behind my target but will build up again!

[jasonc]

[gabrielle260]

Great that you are back on the bike... Build it up slowly - it takes time to get back to where you were!

Jason..congrats

I will hit 10000 pure commute k's this afternoon with the ride home and over 80 000 climbing metres, and thats with no major hills on my route, should have hit the 10k mark yesterday but was lazy and didnt ride

Worked it out, I have spent 16 24 hr days just on a bike so far this year...mmmm makes one think

[Xplora]

Sweet. Brought up 6000 with a 150km ride today. Building for the Jenolan 300km 4000m return ride in November!

[jules21]

built up to my first 300km week after being off the bike for 2 months. bad weather, other commitments, ongoing appts with the nurse to dress my wound and catching a cold have all limited my time on the bike. getting back in the swing though, now.

going to be a challenge to hit 15,000 km target, but i was well ahead before i had to take time off, so i'm still in with a shot.
