Boardman on the Crammond shore

Records are there to be broken. Although I will never threaten to break anything significant on a world scale, it is always good to keep track of your own personal achievements. Looking back at August I have achieved my highest ever monthly mileage on the bike.ย 

I’m not entirely sure how that happened as we didn’t exactly have spectacular weather. However, a full month of commuting (some small extensions) with the addition of a few weekend rides meant that I finished August with 983 miles recorded.

It was so tempting to make it up to 1,000 on the final Sat of the month, but I ended up being really busy and the weather was wet and windy most of the day (call me weak!). Oh well, it just means I have a monthly 1,000 to aim for in another month… ๐Ÿ™‚

The Augustย Heatflaskย image looks a little bit crazy. This is due to me mixing up the routes more than usual and adding some extra miles in.ย 

August Stats

Statistics for the month of Aug are shown below. 983 miles is the new target to beat although it might prove difficult to match that for a while:

Days Commuted: 22
Distance Travelled: 983 miles
Elevation: 43,665 ft
Time: 59h 31mins
Bikes used: 1

It has been a very cheap month on the bike after a couple of expensive ones. I only had one expense which was to fix the rear wheel hub on my spare Vitus bike. This was non-essential but I wanted to get it ready for using over the next few months.
