To make my goal of riding 4,000 miles this year, with 4,000 kilometres within that being loaded touring…
I need to ride 350 miles each month, including 350 kilometres of touring: 350 miles/kms x 12 months = 4200 miles/kms
So for October I rode:
October Unloaded Miles: 103 miles
October Loaded Miles: 408 miles (657 kms)
October Total Miles Ridden: 511 miles
Year to Date Unloaded: 1214 miles
Year to Date Loaded: 2327 miles (3745 kms)
Year to Date Total Miles: 3541 miles
We’re right on track. We should get to our 4,000 kms of loaded riding in the next few weeks. And we need 500 miles in total in the next two months to reach our 4,000 miles goal. Barring major disaster, it should be achievable. I won’t stop at 4,000 though… I’ll see how much I can pedal before year’s end. The rain is finally easing, so if we don’t get carried away by mosquitoes, we should have more conducive days for riding than we had May-Sept. Pedal on!
