~45. Between moving and a week of thunderstorms, not much time. I guess if I want to improve my miles in June, I'm going to have to get used to the weather.

1021. approximately 37,000 feet. 3 flat tires <sigh> Way way way too much of that done in absolutely cr@p weather. <another sigh>.
But, I'm riding a 200K this coming Sunday, and the weather is predicted to be a high of 80 degrees and sunny!!! Pinch me, it can't possibly be true. (it will probably rain, just for me...;) )
Just 280 in May. This will be a big month for miles!
Only 220 miles for May - June should be much better for miles :)
476 for me in May... but for June it may be a lot less. I've got some leg/knee complaints lately. I seem to get one thing fixed with PT, exercises and rest, build back up again and then get a new complaint somewhere else on my wonky left side....
97 for May; was off the bike for 17 days, thanks to a certain biting kitty cat of mine. :mad:
170 in for May for the mini-miler. We had 57 days of rain from March 1st to May 20th.
It was 196.66 miles for most of May. Not sure when I started the odometer, but it wasn't the entire month. I guess it's something from someone who "only" rides for leisure.
I have 641 miles for May. Pretty good month for early in the season. Thank goodness the weather has improved in the Northeast!
I am shocked to add up my mileage and find that it's only 97 miles for May. Between the rain and flooding (all our bike routes were under water) the beginning of the month and triathlon and time trial training, I didn't get but one ride in over 25 miles. This must change in June!
I was a little over my goal of 100 mile per week every week in May, so I'm going to estimate it at 420.
Red, with all of the rain we have all been having that is impressive! My goal for May WAS 100 miles/week, but the weather just prevented that. I plan on getting there in June.
Branching out into mountain biking might slow that as Saturday is the best day for me to mountain bike/practice and that is my traditional long ride day. Obviously 3 hours on the mountain bike covers far less territory than on the road - especially for a total beginner :)
I think what matters is the time on the bike, regardless of how many miles I cover. If my short rides become 25 miles rather than 17-20 I think that will work...
Owlice - off for 17 days from the cat bite :eek: I hadn't realized it had been that long, hope things are better now!

You'll get there, and you'll probably pass my mileage soon! I feel best at 100-120/week, so I never do more than that. I do even less in winter because the studded tires add about 50% to my time, so I'm happy with 60 mi/wk. As for rain, I was able to avoid most of it. Had a few misty rides, but nothing torrential.
You women are hot riders!
May was my first month of really riding, half on a crappy bike and half on a new bike. 107 miles. I am thrilled with myself! This is more miles than I have ridden in total since about 1980.
