Week’s And March’s Bike Ride Recap
Three months of biking are in the records now. For the week of March 27th through April 2nd I rode 5 days totaling 221.87 miles. The longest ride was April 1st at the Zuhne Education Expedition ride starting in Iowa Colony. Wednesday the weather and my biking desire weren’t good so I stayed off the road. Sunday was a recovery day from Saturday’s ride plus I watched the men and women race the Tour of Flanders replays after church. The average distance per ride was 44.374 miles, bumped up by 2 rides over 40 miles. 4 rides on my Cervelo Caledonia and 1 on my Lynskey Helix. 2 rides went southeast and 2 went north.
March bike rides was a mixture of Zwift and road with weather the driver for riding Zwift. I canceled/paused Zwift late in March which means all rides will be outside weather permitting. I rode 6 Zwift rides and 19 road rides. The average distance per ride was 31.18 miles. The average is lower than I like due to the shorter Zwift rides. Road rides totaled 725.5 miles and Zwift totaled 116.37 miles. Two maintenance events, one on my Cervelo replacing the rear tire due to a flat and one on my Lynskey also replacing the rear tire due to a flat.
2023 continues to outpace my previous years in total miles to date with 2,288 miles. This includes Zwift and road miles. 2020 is the closest trailing by 169 miles.
