    22.4 miles on my 'new to me' new ride, Betty. Getting used to the different shifters and a seat I'm not sure is going to stay. (She's an upgrade from a Schwin Avenue, 21 speed triple) I am in LOVE! LOL. She's a Rodriguez Stellar, dark purple with black handlebar tape.

    We did a group ride into Johor State in Malaysia, just 90+km return trip, some climbing, tougher than a rather flat Singapore ride. Didn't sprint all the way with the head of the group, but gave myself a good pace to follow. It was hard though, but I can see my fitness returning slowly. I think I will do these across-the-border rides more often. The ride took us forever though, because we had inexperienced riders in the group and had to take lots of stops to wait for them to catch up and make sure they didn't get lost. Also go caught in a massive thunderstorm about 20km from home, and since there was an immigration checkpoint, heavy traffic and all between that, we stopped to wait it out. All in all, a good ride, felt good, and motivating.

    First off I want to second what everyone else said....Arielmoon I am glad you had a great ride...

    I did the 12 mile bike portion of a sprint triathlon relay. We were a team of breast cancer survivors. Our runner is 10 years out, I am almost 4 and our swimmer is just at 18 months.

    This is a very hilly course and I wanted to do it in under an hour (on my hybrid). I did it in 59:57!!! Not like cutting it close!
