I'm so excited. I was logging yesterday's ride into my notebook last night and found that I had reached the 1000 mile mark for this year!! I looked back and last year I reached it on July 30th...so...progress!! I also saw that I am riding at least 1 mph faster on solo rides than I did a year ago and about 2 mph faster on group rides. Not huge leaps but not bad for someone who isn't really training...just going out and riding. Now I'm REALLY starting to think how much I might improve if I did some interval work.
