Goodbye February

Yeah, well I think we should do something about him!

The month of February has come and gone and I only have 767.83 miles to show for it. In fact here are some stats from this month. Time spent on a 2.10 inch saddle: 38 hours, 10 minutes and 43 seconds. Calories burned: 36,903. Body weight lost: 0 pounds.

My goal is 9,000 miles this year with a sub 4 hour 30 minute Flying Wheels Century on June 22. I wanted to do the 168.5 mile RAMROD (Ride Around Mt. Rainier in One Day) this year but I simply can't afford the $150.00 entry ticket. Not to mention waiting in line forever at the Seattle Bike Expo. I'm aiming for 800 miles in the month of March which shouldn't be too difficult even if you consider the time I will spend in Florida. Actually, Floriday will be a nice spring break from my training.

I'm not sure about racing yet. I'll have to see how I stack up against the Saturn of Bellevue elite team in a couple of weeks.

I completely overhauled my bike today. Bottom bracket, new chain, replaced rear deraileur pulleys and installed my new wheels. The thing looks to pretty to ride. The weather is supposed to be in the upper 50's with no wind tomorrow.
