Marv’s August Bike Log

Dear Rouleurs,

It’s been awhile.  Alas the rigours of fatherhood and work have consumed the last three weeks or so.  Watching a thrilling La Vuleta has also been a big and very exciting distraction. The Olympics, on the other hand, were an almost complete disappointment.  More on that later.  So without any further delay, here’s the log and stats for August.

Much to my astonishment, I rode 738km in August, bringing my annual total to 4980km.  I’m now about 950km ahead of my annual target  and this rate I will pass 7000km by the end of the year.  Woo hoo!!!  The highlight of this month, was the week,  book-ended by 1st and 7th, were I rode 209km.

Sunday October 9, is looming large on next month’s calendar, as this will mark the MMT’s first attempt at 100km as part of Around the Bay, organised by the Bicycle Network.  MMT is riding from Alexandra Gardens to Frankston and back.

Until next blog, ride safe.
