    You can still get to 4000 this year if you focus!

    3000 miles builds a lot of muscle.

    Congrats Lisa...That is such a huge accomplishment. YOu should be tootin' your horn over that one. i've only got 2566 miles..had to go and check my odometer to make sure. My goal was 2500, now to push for the 3000 before ol' man winter sets in. People tell me, I wish I had energy to ride like that. I tell them that biking increases your energy and ones energy is increased with routine exercise, esp. biking. But really feel that goes onto deaf ears. Too bad, they don't know what they are missing. Again, congrats..keep up the work, or riding

    Sometimes if I'm doing a long hard climb, I look at my mileage for the year as I'm riding, instead of the day's mileage. It keeps me in a good frame of mind...

    I say to myself, "Of course you're feeling it, you've ridden over 2000 miles! Who wouldn't be a little tired? And just a couple more to go..."

    congratulations Lisa. I know how you feel. I am 39 miles from my goal of 2000 for the year.

    I set this goal two years ago. That year I fractured my shoulder on Labor Day so I ended the year with 1800. Last year I opened a retail store so I was off the bike for two months and was shy of my 2000. Needless to say, I will end this year with 2000+. Next year will be 2500 along with another goal I have been working on for my dh.
