Post your totals for the month!

[Bike Chick]

I feel so inadequate by comparison

238 miles for the month of April with 8,043 feet of climb. Not bad considering we had almost 17 inches of rain in April and rides were few and far between.

356 miles for april, and it's been a struggle to get every one of them!

[Grog]

476 miles or 762 km.

Due to moving the grand total for last month is 0. We bought the house at the end of March, spent last month getting everything ready and starting to take things over. This coming weekend is the major move. Bikes are already over there. Hopefully can start riding again after we get moved in. (Still seriously considering renting bikes in DC to tour the monuments that way).

454 -- probably the lowest April in years, but crappier weather than in years. I'm just not inclined to go out for a fifty mile ride in a steady rain -- but I am *not* complaining, since we only have More Rain THan Usual -- no major flooding, no tornadoes!
Going to shoot for 1000 in May, though.

Elevation- I ride in Florida so not much

[Aggie_Ama]

Very little, but I mostly mountain bike! I think I might have tipped 75 miles.

[Susan Otcenas]

TrainingPeaks tells me I've ridden 1036 miles in the last 28 days.

There must be a way to pull that data out by date range or by month, but at the moment I can't find it...

[Catrin]

Wow! All of you are shaming me, but it looks like everyone has been having fun In April I rode 238 miles, which is pretty good considering we've been going through a deluge for the last month... If you add in spinning class then it gets closer to 350 miles, but I no longer count the "miles" in that activity.

[Owlie]

Um, zero.

My bike spent April at my parents' house. May should be a good month, once it stops raining and I'm back in a place with a bike path and rideable roads. Next weekend!

[lawnchick22]

Not yet. Have you? It would be tough at higher altitude for me! I have, however, ridden the road to Hana in one day and that was a painful experience due to a bike that was too small and a saddle from hell.

Once I get my Bike Friday, hubby and I plan to ride Kauai (up to Kokee) and the Big Island up to Volcano.

Yes...we did it last August. Incredible ride, views, pain etc.
We knew we needed to start ultra early because of the weather..clouds roll in around 930 10am and wanted to beat that....well, we didn't make it. Started at like 4am and by the time we got to the visitor center, 11 miles from the top, it had already started raining...and it was windy and it was getting cold -- yes, in Maui in August it was cold. It was a difficult ride, but so glad we did it.
Making plans to go back in 2012 or 2013 and do it again.

Next time you go, you may want to look into the cabins inside the crater. We've hiked/camped in the crater many times and it really is spectacular. The cabins sleep 8, have cooking supplies, wood burning stove (yes, it gets cold up there!), out house, water that needs to be boiled, bunk beds, big table. You bring in/out food, sleeping bags, trash. Cabins are about $65 a night and the hike isn't too bad. Going down Sliding Sands is a hard trail no matter how you cut it.

Might be an option for your next trip! If you knew someone that could haul your bags up to the top and take your bikes down and keep them while you camp/hike.

Max of 3 nights in the crater. Max of 2 nights at any one cabin.
