Q2 Cycling

A ride every day, though either for some business, or just a token couple of miles around the neighbourhood to make the every day happen.

A fairly nondescript quarter, generally cool and windy, with few T-shirt days.

April ended on a high note with one warm day where on a whim, I rode down to Bishop's Stortford to join a cycling provision rally (blue line on map) for a 52 mile round trip. Totals : winter bike 3459.4 (up 365.3), summer bike 2191.8 (up 58.8) and 0.6 off meter for 424.7 total, 1249 YTD.

May was disappointing, with continued cold NE winds, so almost all business rides until a badly timed holiday at the end of the month. Totals : winter bike 3610.5 (up 151.1), summer bike 2410.2 (up 218.4) and 78.2 off meter (holiday) for 447.7 total, 1697 YTD.

The cloud from the cold NE wind slowly burned off, leaving the end of the holiday slightly warmer, but June as a whole had few days that enticed me to rides for amusement's sake, and only one 40-miler.

Still, I passed 2000 miles YTD on the 16th, only a day later than last year, despite fewer miles ridden each month in the spring. Totals : winter bike 3610.5 (no change), summer bike 2863.3 (up 453.1) and 116.5 off meter (holiday) for 569.6 total, 2266 YTD.
