Spring ride on the FRT

Went for a nice trip down the Fox River Trail to the North to Crystal Lake. Got a nice 21 miles in an hour and fifty minutes. As you can see by the picture of the temp, Spring has finally arrived. Woohoo!

March was another month slowed by winter sicknesses and doldrums. I only really logged miles for half the month. What a winter. Bleh. Total miles year to date is 460.5. I am starting to do more walking/jogging as well as biking. I am sure this might take a few miles away from biking at times when I am forced to make a choice between one or the other for a days exercise.

February Miles

While I had a great start to the year with 170 miles in January, I only managed to bike half of the month of February. This was due to a nice bout of Bronchitis that inhibited miles starting on the 19th. I figger I lost about 100 miles of exercise cuzza that. I will probably hop back on the bike starting next week or once the cough finally gives up the ghost. Whichever comes first. Here's what I managed in Feb anyways:

FEBRUARY	132.2	11	12.02	15.2	10.0

This gives me a total of 302.5 miles at the end of February. Was hoping to have over 400 miles by the end of February. Oh well. Maybe next year. If I can average about 200 miles a month during the off peak months of the year, I could have a nice smooth 2000 to 2500 miles by the end of the year.  What kind of miles are YOU intending to get this year? Drop a comment and lemme know! :^)

2011 biking mileage and stats

I was surprised at the mileage I put on in 2011 when I calculated this up.

Average miles per month was 190.38 miles.And would have been much higher if I had gotten any mileage in the winter. I didn't buy rollers for inside biking until 2012. Average number of trips per month was 8.92.

2012 mileage and stats.

I decided to calculate the miles from 2012 to see how they stack up to the charted 2013 miles I have in the other post.

January Biking

This January was probably one of the most prosperous winter months I have recorded. After Christmas, I felt it was time to get burnin off all that junk food and holiday glut.  And aside from a slight period of being sick and a minor sprained ankle, I managed to string together quite a few back to back biking days.

 I was one ride away from equaling the busiest month I had in all of 2013 in number of rides per month. The longest ride of the month is/was a laugh. But hey! That's better'n nothin! Maybe in February I can push a 20 or 30 miler here or there. It's tough to get motivated to bike longer distances when the scenery doesn't change AT ALL! Heh. I would provide pictures of the scenery I encountered in January. But I am thinking you have seen a painted room before. So I will save you the bandwidth on that one. Happy biking! :D

Red Gate Bridge

As promised, here is more pictures of where I went and what I did while biking in 2013. These pictures are from 17 July, 2013:

 This bridge is a nice addition to the chain of bridges on the Fox River.

 The pedestrian/biking bridge underneath the automobile version connects the Fox River Trail(FRT) on the far bank with nature trails and a local subdivision with no sidewalks.

Just some proof that I was there.
