Zero miles in January.

[Jody]

I haven't been out since November and currently have no motivation to make a start. Really have lost the cycling mojo this last year.

August for me. A combination of things after that date have kept me off.

It's rubbish

 

[Milzy]

All mine have been indoor. Ohhh well.

I managed one day last week (in the ice with spiked tyres) but had to get off and push on the steeper of the hills.

I was using the Singlespeed though (36/15 ratio) for the 7 mile round trip commute.

I think that must be the longest since I learnt to ride a bike ~61 years ago.

10.6 miles for January two trips to Sainsburys

6 miles for December and January combined - two return journeys to the Co-op. As days are getting longer, I hope to soon be able to get toat least some U3A afternoon meetings (and back!) by bike but of course it will be weather-dependent. I might do a trip to Lidl by bike next week - a few days of fine weather seem to be forecast - but not if there's frost on the ground.

Having suffered from a similar winter bug before Christmas that took three lots of antibiotics to clear, I'm pleased to say that I hit January like an idiot with 1224.3 miles covered.

My January milage was low, because my commute is shorter nowadays.
Haven't missed a day, though, I work 6 days to boot
Won't stop even now that I've got my free bus pass.
There are no direct buses to my work anyway

Three rides for me in January totalling 73 miles.

 

[Rooster1]

250 miles for Jan, instead of 400 + due to ice and lack of mojo

 

[postman]

Well this fraud does not start while April then finishes in November.But this year i am riding out with two old mates so i am expecting a few miles.

 

[vickster]

All mine have been indoor. Ohhh well.

So also zero miles then

My January was low aswell, I try to convince myself it was due to health and weather, but, in truth, there were several days of CBA. Got out today though and loved it.

This must be the first full calendar month in about 20 years that I have done ZERO cycling miles.
A combination of factors, but having this lingering winter bug thing since just after new year; weather alternating between sub zero with ice, and wet/windy; and a general lack of cycling mojo have all contributed.
On the positive side, my niggling left hip pain has improved significantly. I have done some investigation into this and come to the conclusion that I have been riding with my saddle set too high. So going to follow the advice found on several "bike fit" videos and lower my saddle, to see how it goes.
It's February tomorrow, so hopefully going to kick start my cycling year at the weekend as the weather looks reasonable.

Maybe time to setup a new type of challenge? 🤔

Managed 24 rides in January, with 4 of those indoors (you should see state of lounge…)
