My challenge

[Slowspoke]

After reading a whole bunch this week, I have decided to commit to 2 challenges. First, I will ride every day for 30 days. Any amount will do, I just need to get out there. Next, whenever possible I will ride my bike for any errand within 2 miles of my house. Commuting to work is more of just an excuse to ride as I am 25 expressway miles away and 30 miles if I rode through neighborhoods. I know myself and I know I just won't do it!

So today, I rode to the grocery store and told DH I would pick up some taco bell for him on the way home. He said no, it would be cold by the time I got home (it's a whopping 2 miles away!). So I went on my merry way, picked up taco bell for myself and when I got home, my car was gone. He decided to drive to taco bell himself! So much for saving a little gas. Oh well, I got my bike time in!

Cool idea. i'm going to join you in the "every day for 30 days" challenge, since I need some extra motivation on some days. I'll count today as Day One, as I did a short (10 miles) ride with friends early morning, and did another short (7 miles) ride later.

I can't actually claim this idea as my own. I read it elsewhere on this site and it sounded like a good idea to me!

Love the challenge - Every day for 30 days. I think I will try that as well. Of course, I didn't ride yesterday but I did take a hike but hey today is a new day. I don't commute as I live above my store but I do take stuff to the post office on my bike, all the time

Day 2, did 38.3 miles!

Love the challenge. I'll join you- except I'm going to Boston this week for business, so I won't be near my bike- but I'll start once I get home!

After awhile, you won't notice your hubby's reaction to your daily cycling errands trips.

You'll be feelin' too good from cycling.

There have been some months in some years where I did cycle daily for 30 days.

But then, we don't have a car.
