I've ridden a total of 61 miles this month and 5 out of the last 8 days. I seem to be getting my legs back after months of no activity. I have been doing some research on local organized rides and am shooting for the Lancaster County Ride (62 miles), on April 9th, as my first major ride of the year. I also plan on riding in the Beauty and the Beast ride (64 miles), in Tyler on April 30th and after that the MS150 - Red River challenge (150 miles) on May 14th and 15th.

I am looking to do a minimum 8 organized rides this year and am shooting for 2000 miles by year end.

To do this I will need to ride a minimum of 65 miles a week, which is not difficult at all, as long as I can stay motivated.....
