I'm up for 10K! Wasn't in the club last year ...... but made it to 10,000. I'd much like to be added!!! Unsure how this year will pan out time wise, so i'll be happy if i make 10,000 again.

Missed my midnight ride home from the New Years party due to a flat tyre and friendly guests who gave me a lift home.

So I got up this morning and decided to fix my creaky headset once and for all. Went for a test ride and all seemed perfect for the first 8km... Then the darn thing started creaking again, just a little but by the time I got the other side of town is was getting pretty bad, so I headed up the hill got a KOM (must have been a bit angry!) and some how managed to do 27km which is exactly what I need to do every day to get 10k for the year.....

Not a bad start 1 KOM and 0km behind :wink:

*I'll strip down the fork/headset and start a thread in the shed soon, I think there is a part missing

If I stay working at Rhodes this year, I'll be able to walk in 12K. I think my "dream goal" will have to be 16K, if I can do a century or 3 each month that should really pad out the kms 8) Really have to HTFU to squeeze out the full century each saturday!

I'm in for 20000 and I mean that, not 30000! :lol:
May not make 20000 though, different goals this year plus away for part of the year.
0 km today :D

I'm not sure I'd make the 10k club but considering I put in 2615km in the last two months (1600 of which was in December) anything might be possible :)

I've spent an hour or so going through my training diary. Turns out I did over 13,000 kms this year if I include home trainer kms whilst recovering from the shoulder operation at the start of the year. Also - I have done almost 38,000 m of climbing this year without even seeking it out. So, given this, I need to amend my goals.
Not sure I want to get into Strava though - I like Cyclemeter for the long monotonous kms where there is no traffic - it gives me feedback every km on my average speed and elapsed time... can Strava do that?
I'll go for 14,000 kms of road kms and double the amount of climbing - 75,000 m. Now to figure out my signature thingy again!

I'm in again, this years goal is 15001kms, I'm taking 2 weeks of in Feb & I'm NOT riding a bike at all, no pushbike of any description, if you see me on a golf course or wetting a line somewhere between Brisbane & Sydney during that fortnight, pretend that I'm not a bicycle rider, because during that 2 weeks I'm NOT.

Just setting the goal low, I'm not concentrating on amassing big K's, just going to ride, enjoy my rides & the end result will be the end result.

Yeah I am on strava, I'm a bugger for not logging my rides, I download onto my computer (into a program a friend wrote), then upload it to Runkeeper, then manually load the distance, averages, etc onto bike journal, sometimes I remember to enter it onto strava.

Yeah put me down for 10k.
Did very nearly 8k this year and ramping things up. No, not going racing (why does everyone keep asking me that) just like to ride! :D

I'm in. I had my first ever 10k year last year, and hope to improve on that this year. I've been using My Cycling Log to record my rides.

I'll have a crack at 12k this year. If I don't crash :roll: and thus stay on the bike I should be right :)

Once again you are all getting a head start on me!
On Sunday morning we decided to take our old 85kg CRT TV to the tip. As we were lifting it to put it in the car I felt my back go and have been in pain and off the bike ever since. I think I won't be able to ride till at least Friday

Get well soon, I personally know how bad a back can be, unfortunately (or fortunately considering I'm still walking I guess) have broken my back twice, live with some level of back pain, but since late last year it has been worse, fortunately I have a good masseur, so with some extra exercise & some anti inflammatory's it's very manageable at present.

Take it easy, go see someone (a GP, physio or massage therapist), look after it & get well soon.

Best wishes.
