Well…not sure if it was a real goal or not, but I didn’t get to 2,000 miles before the end of July…missed it by 75 miles but that still is more than I have ridden before by this time of the year. Okay, I did get there if I include the 161 miles I rode on the road bike but I think I’ll just continue to only count the miles on the new bike….it was such a good ride this morning that I ignored my rule that Saturday and Sunday are supposed to be recovery rides where I let my legs heal up some…just felt too good to take it easy….I am really happy with the new bike…it rides like new after almost 2,000 miles and I couldn’t say that about the Motobecane…it had started to deteriorate by this mileage and then it was constant work to keep it rideable…I haven’t had to do anything to this one and that is pretty cool for an inexpensive bike…..there was a crowd of spandex boys out on the street today…there must have been 25 of them in this group and they were taking up an entire lane on Eastern…something that I will never do…just too dangerous with all the texters out there….
