    Hmmm- somewhere between 2 and 7

    I try to make it 5-6 days a week

    But last "week" I rode 10 days in a row... But I have not ridden since Sunday - 3 days off the bike in a row.

    I need to get out this evening after work as my legs are aching... plus there is a 50km race on Sunday... so I better make sure my legs are gently ready for it!


    Courage does not always roar. Sometimes, it is the quiet voice at the end of the day saying,
    "I will try again tomorrow".

    I just checked my BikeJournal.
    I have 108 "rides" - including rollers - for 2007. As we are now in week 41 of the year (I think I counted that right), that equates to about 2.6 rides per week, on average. Some weeks, I might ride 5-6 days (rarely, 7). Some weeks, I don't get to ride at all.

    Mostly two days - 30-ish on Wednesday evenings (getting shorter as the days get shorter) and 40-60 on Saturdays. One day running, aerobics 3 to 5 days, try to do Pilates one day, not nearly enough strength training.

    And yes, there are rest days in there, just not rigidly scheduled ones. I don't train that hard, so it mainly depends on how much impact I've been doing, or if I had an extra long ride.

    Oct. 1 was my 200th consecutive day riding, tho' one of 'em only had a mile, returning that rental car.

    I don't need a rest day from walking; I don't need a rest day from riding unless I've gone hard, and a rest day means more restful riding. Unlike running, riding doesn't break the body down.
