Day 30

\"day

It\’s Day 30 of Love to Ride!

I hope I\’ll be able to log rides for the Challenge tomorrow, even though the Challenge ends today. Usually I don\’t do an evening ride, but today I did. Getting in my last licks, you see. It\’s Day 30, after all!

So ends the month-long Love to Ride challenge. I routinely log my rides even when there isn’t a Challenge in progress, which is how I found out about the April Challenge.

I must admit that I’m ready for a bit of a rest now, but I can’t skip riding to work too much if I have any hopes of earning the Super Commuter badge this year. To get it, you must ride to work 200 times within the year; and I’m already behind. I missed too many days earlier this year. My profile shows that I’m 21% there; and 21% of 200 is 42, right? So I still have 158 days to go.

While I’d like to get the badge, it looks like my earning it this year is out of reach. There are going to be days when riding to work is impractical; there will be holidays; and probably a vacation. Maybe I\’d do better at bicycling to work regularly if I lived farther away.

I was browsing the Love to Ride site today, and I believe there\’s another Challenge coming in September. So let\’s stay in shape and be ready for it!
