Finally hit the 60,000 mile mark (Thanks, HPC)
- Thread starter sleepless_red
- Start date
While I'm here, let me share with you guys how my schedule goes in case you wonder how I racked up all those miles.
I always start working at 7:30 am and ends whenever. Sometimes until almost 8:00pm.
Mondays-kids have Karate class from 7:30-9:00pm so we get home around 9:20pm.
Tuesdays-My daughter has piano lesson from 7:00-7:45pm
Wednesdays-Karate class again same time as Mondays.
Thursdays-kids have C2 education class from 5:00 until 7:00pm
Fridays- finally gets a break from kids' after school activities.
My wife and I go to the gym whenever we can after work. I almost forgot, I work Saturdays, too.
Sundays is family day. I ride too but I have to be back before 9:00am to go to church and spend the rest of the day with the family.
These are the reasons why I go riding before coming to work. I don't ride to work because I live 3.2 miles away from it. These are also the reasons why I've never gone on any trips. I can't leave my family behind with all these activities. When I do get a day off, I can only ride from 9:00am until about 2:30pm because I have to pick up my daughter from school at 3:05pm.
This is why sometimes, I wonder how I did it, too.

I'll try that. See what happens.
Thanks, Blaine.
One word...DEDICATION!
You got it, Dr. E. Like what I've told my co-worker who also rides, if I don't get up early and ride, I won't be able to ride at all.

Thanks. We'll see.
Thanks again, everyone. I really appreciate it. Just got back from another ride.
Good job.
Thanks. You,too. I just did another 100 miles this morning. That's the secret.DAMN---that's a lot of riding. I don't know how you do it with that schedule. Mine turned 2 years old the day after Thanksgiving--only got 18,000 miles on her! Stay safe--and ride often!!!

Thanks, John. Be safe.
I'm pretty sure, you will. Just keep riding. Be safe.That for sure is a lot of miles. I hope that I can hit that many miles.
When you have HPC doing all the work on your ride, it will last long.
