Is there a specific route or trail you want to hit up this summer? A distance or fitness goal of some sort? Planning a bicycle tour? Bikepacking?

Please share, I’m curious to see what all of you are getting up to for this summer!

    Last year I started cycling and had a goal of riding down every street in my city. I made it to 25% last summer so I figured my goal this year would be another 25% to get me to 50% but I might go for 60% instead. I am a stay at home dad with two young kids so my only real opportunity to go is the evening when they go to bed so it makes a little bit of a challenge. I have to ride further and further to get to new roads as I have all the ones near my house but it’s definitely worth it! I am sitting at 42% and am 4th for my city.

      Late evening and early morning rides are my favourites! I hope you’re able to reach your goal.

      Oh I love that, what a great way to discover some new cool stuff in your city! What do you use to keep track of your progress? Is it Strava? Because if so that’s going to be the thing to finally make me cave and download Strava.

        It’s fun going to areas I never would have gone before. I use Strava then use a website called Wandrer.earth which pulls the Strava info in. Be warned thought, it gets addicting!
