Have you done your first ride of 2017 yet?

[simon.r]

January 1st was wet and horrible here, which combined with the traditional hangover meant no riding.

But today dawned bright and sunny, if somewhat cold and I managed a steady 25 miles:

As a bonus I've placed first this year on several segments

Have you got out this year yet?

Back to work tomorrow so back on the saddle!.

I have done 2 rides. 11 miles yesterday and 6 today. Cold but it was OK. I'm sticking to short rides at the moment as the cold puts me off. It makes my hands hurt so I would rather get a little ride in and not hurt my hands and feel good about it than beat myself up for not doing proper rides.

A quick 21 miles at lunchtime today, the back roads were still icy.

 

[Flying Dodo]

Just a little shopping trip.

 

[vickster]

Nope. Probably not until March unless the exercise bike counts! Then yes!

Been out twice this year! 10 miles locally on New Years Day, then a 40 mile ride to Ayr today. I hope this isn't our summer. Being in the west of Scotland, that's not as unlikely or as crazy a notion as it may seem. Today, in Ardrossan with the hills of Arran in the background. January 2nd, really?......

Please note the mudguards now fitted, @Pat "5mph" . Found them in a "bitsa" box in my loft!

 

[cosmicbike]

Yep, metric century yesterday and 15 miles of commuting today

72km (3 hours) round Surrey this afternoon. Absolutely perfect weather, had a blast... Not too sure about Leigh Hill and it's 22.3° gradient though!

You can see Goatfell from there!

Went out yesterday about 10.00 am and did about 25 miles. It was cold and quite windy, but good to sweat some of the New Year's Eve alcohol out of my system. Too much on today, but hoping to get at least 2 more rides in this week.

 

[EltonFrog]

Yup, 4 miles yesterday in the pithing rain to buy milk from a shop that was closed.

 

[ianrauk]

Yes. Myself and @Trickedem did 102 miles for January's qualifying ride for the Imperial Century a Month Challenge. 'twas nice and sunny but mighty cold out.

 

[summerdays]

I've done two rides both short, and both cold!

You could today. On an average summer day you can't even see the spit of land to the right, where Asda and the ferry terminal are .
