Cycling Community Weekly Milage Update - First full week of 2025!

in Cycling4 days ago (edited)

Hello there Friends, Happy Monday evening - and thank you for your visit!

This is post number 26 in the #cyclingcommunity, and this week it will be all 2025. The first whole week of the year, and "low miles / kilometers" It was pretty cold, pretty windy, and pretty wet - all week!
And I also have a little surprise - and I have one for next week as well,
But for this week here we go!

So, for this week this is where the numbers are!

The Black bike:

This Monday at 25.159 miles / 40.489 kilometers

An increase of,
4.726 miles / 7.605 kilometers

And,

The Green bike:

This Monday at 10.159 miles / 16.349 kilometers

An increase of,
4.451 miles / 7.163 kilometers

So this puts the weekly total at,
9.177 miles / 14.768 kilometers (total) for the week as well - "low miles"!

This puts the total for2025 at,
35.318 miles / 56.838 kilometers so far this year!

A "low milage week" for sure, but way ahead of the 8.5 miles / 13.67 kilometers for January last year!
And the surprise...
Late last year I was riding and hit what I thought was a twig in the road, it wasn't - it was a bent steel rod. Well it flipped up and somehow wedged it's way into the back brakes,

When this happened, it stopped me dead in my tracks on the street. I bent it to get home and thought it may hold awhile.. Well, no... It wobbled - which made the brakes jerk and made a very loud sound so today I put on these,

And here they are on the bike,

The two miles I rode today before the cold got to me is not really enough to adjust them right, but... They are on the bike, they work, and do not jerk or make a honking sound - I'm happy so far!

I have a few more surprises coming, and will update next week for sure!
And that was it for this week. I want to thank you again for your visit, I do appreciate it!

"Keep On Pedalin'"!

Nice one! I had to do some repairs to my brakes as well this week.
I've created a post about it which I'll post later today.

Keep on pedaling!
