200!
Friday, 15 June 2007 by Jacob TomawI wish I were writing to say this is my weight, but it is not (around 280 and falling). That is the number of miles I have ridden my bike since my birthday. Joscelynn gave me a Cycling Computer for my 27th on 27 May. I have ridden to work every day since then. That is only 14 days and I have amassed 214.1 and passed 200 on the way to Whirlyball (work outing) yesterday. At this rate I will put over 1000 miles on my little bike just in the summer months and have a fun workout the whole time.
Now I am faced with the question, what is regular maintenacne to a bike that get 100 miles ever 7 days or so? The bike shop said they expect my tires to rot before they go flat, but I should check the pressure regularly. My double walled rims seem to be holding up well, but they will need a truing every 3 months or so. I wonder how often my drive chain needs to be cleaned a lubed.
