2009 on Bike Journal

[RoadRaven]

Well, TE-ers!
Time to start logging those kms/miles again on BikeJournal! We were 7th club in 2008 (I think we were 7th or 8th in 2007 - can anyone remember?)

http://bikejournal.com/

Three of us have logged our New Year's Day rides already...

Oakleaf 53km
RoadRaven 24km
siouxgeonz 9km

...c'mon TE Whanau... the challenge is before us...

(I was wrapped to be 11th - last year I was 23rd... in 2009 I'd like to be in the top ten - just a good motivating goal to make sure I get on my bike and ride!)


I think I will convince my partner to log his 2009 miles for us... he reads TE and BikJournal and at 23,001km for the year in 2008, his rides might be useful for our talley - what do you all reckon?

My resolution for the year was to faithfully log my miles. I just paid for a premium membership as if I'm paying for it, I'll log it. Thanks for the reminder!! I'm in awe of the ladies and the miles!! Way to go!!!

Wow. My mileage looks so much more impressive when shown in kilometers!

I exceeded my goals in '08. I'm setting the same mileage goal in '09, but aiming for a commuter century (100 commute days). I am content that my mileage goals allow me to do lots of riding, but still have a life beyond the bike(s).

Dang, if it wasn't for REALLY slow months last January and November, I'd have been in the top 10 But I'm pretty much okay with my total mileage. Considering it's more than double what I did last year and WAY more than I've done since about 1993, I can't complain. And yeah, it sure does look better in km!

LOL... had to smile... when folks here talk about weight loss, it looks much better in imperial rather than metric!

She lost 20lbs... or she lost 10kgs...

Okay then, let's get our units straight for this year.

Elevation gain in FEET.

Distance travelled in KILOMETERS.

Weight lost in POUNDS.

Weight gained in KILOGRAMS.

Everyone got that?
