Back on the Bike!

I'm trying to put in my first 100 mile week of the year on the bike.  And it's showing.  Tonight I rode 27 miles and on Saturday I rode 35 miles.  When I started my ride tonight my legs were already tired.  Between that and the wind (at my back on the way out, in my face on the way home) I was traveling pretty slow by the time I returned to the house.  

So for all you keeping track at home I have 38 more miles to ride in 4 days.  That will be a challenge.  Not sure I'm going to make it.  

To make matters worse I checked out the total miles I've ridden this year on MapMyRide.  I log almost all of my workouts there.  And the total so far year to date was 400.  My goal was to ride 1,000 this year so it's unlikely I'm going to make it.  But I guess that is what goals are for right?  

So I have a lot of riding to do over the next couple of months!  

I'm finding that riding (alone) gives me solitary time to think, similar to being on a plane at 35,000 feet.  So Brad, be forewarned.  I'm likely to throw some pretty crazy posts your way if I do half the riding I intend to do.
