Well its been quite a month fo riding. It was a 5 weekend month which meant 5 big rides, along with a weekly night ride have really stacked up the mlies. I got a new video made this month and done some great rides in some awesome weather. I feel I'm owning the 60mileish distance now and not just getting through it. Hope to be comfotable with 75-80miles by the end of April, but I will be away on holliday a few times during the month so I'll have to see how that goes.

March - 578 miles

February - 406 miles

January - 305 miles

MTB riding log

Going to try and keep this updated with details of mileage and altitude when I get chance, to give me more idea of progress rather than just computer mileage.

26/3/12 - 15 miles, total climb 983ft, total descent 965ft, stinking cold.

27/3/12 - 28 miles, total climb 1921ft, total descent 1912ft, stinking cold.

1/4/12 - 16 miles, total climb 732ft, total descent 699ft, stinking cold. Easy ride with a couple of newbies. Still got a cold.

I have been really busy of late with a load of things and so not really had time to do the blow by blow updates. Here's a quick blast of my bike related activities of the last 10 days or so.

Remembering how far you have come.

Just a quick update on this weeks night ride, that isn't really an update about the ride at all. I bumped into a mate a few months ago who had just got his first mountain bike and having seen my facebook updates mentioned he was keen to get involved. A few months past and I hadn't heard from him, so last weekend I got in touch and asked him if he fancied a burn this week.

February Mileage Update

I feel February has been a good month for riding. Got out in the snow and ice for some decent miles that were actually pretty enjoyable. Found a new area to ride in with some challenging ascents and awesome descents in the shape of The Long Mynd. Broke through the 50 mile barrier which had been a personal goal for this month and almost hit 60 miles.
