    My boyfriend just bought an Element. I told him now we can get a dog since we have a proper dog car.

    Your pictures are very inspirational!

    The Ele is the perfect dog car!

    Come to think of it, that's about how much I still ride. Only now I actually try to find the hills. In Minneapolis, that's a challenge.

    Congratulations on your new obsession. I hope you get hooked as much as I have!

    Cheers,

    Thanks Kate...so on a weekend day you now do 40 miles in one day! WOW! I wanna get strong enough to do that!

    This includes a race of about 30-35km each week (unless its a TT which is only 20-25km) plus a warm up and cool down of about 15-20kms as well.

    I try and do one ride of about 50-60kms when the weather is nice, and the other rides are about 20-25kms, or an hour on the spin bike.

    Not getting much outside time at the moment due to midwinter light and bad weather so am on the spin bike more than I like.

    Thanks for you post. I like seeing where you started and where you are now. I'm all about setting goals and it helps to see what others are doing.
