Not gonna make the goal, but a good month for me. Should have been a little less aggressive with my goal knowing what would challenge that number with other activities, but thought I’d try. Can’t ride tomorrow.

It's a long time since I posted in a thread like this. In March I weighed my max ever, 267 pounds. I'm down to about 232, and feel much better. I got a new bike this month too, so I'm riding more.
July 7: 2 miles (test ride of Trek Domane AL 5)
July 12: 3 miles (test ride of Trek Checkpoint SL 5... this is the one!)
July 13: 27 miles on my 1983 Raleigh Super Course
July 14: 13 miles... the rest of the rides for this month are on my new Trek Checkpoint SL 5
July 16: 17 miles
July 18: 16 miles
July 19: 24 miles
July 20: 30 miles
July 23: 14 miles
July 25: 18 miles
July 27: 31 miles
July 28: 28 miles
July 30: 15 miles
July 31: 10 miles
July Total: 248 miles
GOAL: To have fun
The new bike: Trek Checkpoint SL 5, my first carbon fiber bike, first bike with brifters, first bike with disc brakes, first bike with tubeless tires and first bike with clipless pedals. Love it so far. From tonight's 15 mile ride:

I’m happy with that , for the days ridden.
not too bad for an over weight, arthritic seventy three year old man .
Feeling much better than I have in awhile.

7/16: 27.78
7/17: 31.26
7/19: 40.29
7/20: 17.04. This was supposed to be an easy, short day. Glass in the bike lane. The hiss of rear deflation. The leaking green goo from the hole in the tube. The dryness of a broken tube of rubber cement. The fun of opening the plastic around a new tube. The sadness of discovering the tread torn open to the core threads (>2k miles on the tires). The joy of shopping for a new tire.
Back to Arizona to pack some more to finish this move.
Back to SLC.

7/20: 17.04. This was supposed to be an easy, short day. Glass in the bike lane. The hiss of rear deflation. The leaking green goo from the hole in the tube. The dryness of a broken tube of rubber cement. The fun of opening the plastic around a new tube. The sadness of discovering the tread torn open to the core threads (>2k miles on the tires). The joy of shopping for a new tire.
Back to Arizona to pack some more to finish this move.
Back to SLC.
