What a beautiful day in Indiana. Rode as a group of 8 from Indy to Franklin. Stopped for a stoker-poty break, then cranked the big ring till we caught up to the pack. Nice ride of 46.5 miles on the tandem. Then we adjusted and re-adjusted our new recumbent. It is a Tomohawk and I named him Black Bart. Tom would have been more logical, but I llike the sound of Black Bart better. I was more than a bit shakey during the launch, but feeling quite comfortable after 7 miles. This is our first recumbent and I really like it. Bikes are FUN.

Charles--Think I "met' you and your friends on my way back to Muncie (from Losantville) somewhere between 2-3 this afternoon! I was riding solo in a pink jersy,
and said hi to several guys in a row, that I didn't recognize!! I ride 20-30 miles daily on the trail-my favorite part is NO cars!
To Everyone that wants a fun ride--Sat., July 27 is the Great Greenway Tour. You can ride north from Muncie to Gaston or south to Richmond. Muncie also has paved trails that connect along the river. There are SAG stops along the way, and even a bike shop at Medford (7 miles south of Muncie) and also one closer to Richmond. The cost is $30 til July 8th. You get a t-shirt, catered lunch, & food at the SAG stops. You can ride as far or as little as you want. I volunteer at the depot for registration and at the lunch tent every year.
The website for info and registration is: greatgreenwaytour.org
charles starnes Sun Jun 15 23:22:00 2014

I commute 21 miles round trip throughout the year. I'm always interested in comparing notes with other commuters. I've got a 1997 TREK 2100 road bike which I've attached fenders and a rack to. I've learned to cope with most situations, but getting a little tired of chain cleaning and lubing required when riding in wet conditions. Also, getting some corrosion on the aluminum frame. I ride as long as there is no snow/ice on the road, and not raining too hard. I've learned that rain isn't that bad if it's not too cold. I've ridden down to 3F this year, and I was dressed well so was comfortable.
Jay Hardcastle Tue May 13 18:13:00 2014

Sarah Lukens Fri May 9 15:32:00 2014
Hi Bicycle Indiana - I am having issues that I can't figure out how to fix. I am somehow logging miles and points that are being merged with my miles and points for 2013. I moved to Indiana within the past year, and somehow the interface has moved me to bicycle indiana where I registered this year, but I am not showing up in the rankings. Which makes sense because my miles and points are adding to my 2013 miles and points.

The way I found to change location was to first find yourself in the Leaderboard rankings. Then I click your name or image. This will take you to your profile for the challenge. There should be a link labeled "Change Settings" on your challenge profile page. The link takes you to a short form that has a spot to edit your location.

What someone (me) will do to keep a consecutive ride streak going! Rode 26 miles yesterday and 21 today--all in the rain. That work "thing" determines when I can ride. But, the streak is still going at 106 days!

I planned to ride about 40 miles today. Didn't plan a route - was just winging it on farm roads. When I'd ridden 40 miles and the roads seemed a bit unfamiliar, I mapped a route back home - it was 20 miles away! Rode another 9 miles before it started pouring down cold rain, then I gave up and called my wife to pick me up and drive me home the rest of the way. Still feel good about getting a 49-mile ride in.

We had a great workout today with a strong west wind. Good shake-down ride for MTR next weekend. Most of our miles are in the country and it is interesting to see the crops go through their cycles. We had a good omen at the start of the ride as a beautiful young deer ran in front of us. Only one stupid driver today. I signaled and took the lane as we approached a stop sign at a train track crossing. There was an oncomming cyclist on the far side of the tracks, but the driver passed us anyway. She ran the stop sign on the rong side of the road as she drove between the bicycles in the middle of the rough tracks.....Perfect example of PFB (POOP-For Brains.)

Light rain this morning @ 72 f . Plenty of road-spray. One rider turned back, but 4 of us finished our M/W/F ride to Franklin and back. We watched the heavy rain and zig-zaged around it. Just a constant, light mist, but otherwise happy ride. 5 min to wipe down the tandem and feeling very good that we rode today. Not a good feeling to punk-out and miss a ride. After all, under my shorts and jersey I have a waterproof suit.

Light rain this morning @ 72 f . Plenty of road-spray. One rider turned back, but 4 of us finished our M/W/F ride to Franklin and back. We watched the heavy rain and zig-zaged around it. Just a constant, light mist, but otherwise happy ride. 5 min to wipe down the tandem and feeling very good that we rode today. Not a good feeling to punk-out and miss a ride. After all, under my shorts and jersey I have a waterproof suit.

Back in March I bought my sister a bicycle for a belated birthday/Christmas present. She's an avid runner and I knew she'd take to cycling. Sunday she sent me a text, excited that she'd logged 100 miles since the beginning of the month, bought new pedals, learned how to grease her chain, and has started going to CIBA group rides. All is going according to plan...

Early this afternoon finished a 15 mile loosening up ride to cap out a 700+ mile week. Several of you probably have heard of and/or ridden the Ride Across Indiana (RAIN). 160+ mile across the state form Terre Haute to Richmond in one day, mostly along US Hwy-40. This would have been my 4th year for that event but to challenge myself that I was back fully after last year's pulverized collarbone I did RAINSTORM. Each of the 5 days preceding the RAIN, up to 50 riders travel from Richmond to Terre Haute and then on day 6, ride back by participating in RAIN with the other 1400 riders or so. . 100 or more miles each day and then the 163 on Saturday. Thank God the routes end at nice hotels and State Park Inns each night with pools, hot tubs, and soft beds! Highly recommended for those with an "Ultra" bent.

20.54 miles today, non stop. Good flatter route than most of mine. Time to think and just ride. Lost a deer hunting buddy last night. MC and deer collision. 45 years old, young family. What a loss. Ride SAFE everyone! I stuck a 14x18 US flag on the back of my bike to ride state roads. Seemed to make a big difference being seen. Almost all was totally in the passing lane going around. God Bless!

Steve Reid Sr. Tue Jul 2 22:37:00 2013
A little discouraged (GASP......HERECY!! :-) ) Age 60, started June 13 (after 45 year lay off LOL), 40 lb comfort/hybrid, platform pedals, tennis shoes. 8 spd Nexus gearing. Upgraded (I think?) to butterfly bars. 15 workouts in 20 days, weather not so great and still working on stamina.....and that's where the discouragement comes in. Six miles in 35-40 min is about average so far. 8 and 10 mile rides werent so bad but tired as all get out the next day. Workouts ALL have some decent hills in them, kinda on purpose. Weight loss / health reasons to start riding and the weight loss is going fine. No clue on lbs but down 2 holes on my belt so far. Not the best bike for much longer rides and realize I HAVE TO drop some more weight to be very efficient at all and it will come but I WANT IT NOW! ROFL! Not shooting for a century ride with this set up but I've got a 40 plus miler for my summer goal. Rain and tired legs.....IN A SLUMP! Hate resting!! I WANNA RIDE!

What a beautiful day in Indiana. Rode as a group of 8 from Indy to Franklin. Stopped for a stoker-poty break, then cranked the big ring till we caught up to the pack. Nice ride of 46.5 miles on the tandem. Then we adjusted and re-adjusted our new recumbent. It is a Tomohawk and I named him Black Bart. Tom would have been more logical, but I llike the sound of Black Bart better. I was more than a bit shakey during the launch, but feeling quite comfortable after 7 miles. This is our first recumbent and I really like it. Bikes are FUN.

Charles--Think I "met' you and your friends on my way back to Muncie (from Losantville) somewhere between 2-3 this afternoon! I was riding solo in a pink jersy,
and said hi to several guys in a row, that I didn't recognize!! I ride 20-30 miles daily on the trail-my favorite part is NO cars!
To Everyone that wants a fun ride--Sat., July 27 is the Great Greenway Tour. You can ride north from Muncie to Gaston or south to Richmond. Muncie also has paved trails that connect along the river. There are SAG stops along the way, and even a bike shop at Medford (7 miles south of Muncie) and also one closer to Richmond. The cost is $30 til July 8th. You get a t-shirt, catered lunch, & food at the SAG stops. You can ride as far or as little as you want. I volunteer at the depot for registration and at the lunch tent every year.
The website for info and registration is: greatgreenwaytour.org
charles starnes Sat Jun 15 18:22:00 2013

I commute 21 miles round trip throughout the year. I'm always interested in comparing notes with other commuters. I've got a 1997 TREK 2100 road bike which I've attached fenders and a rack to. I've learned to cope with most situations, but getting a little tired of chain cleaning and lubing required when riding in wet conditions. Also, getting some corrosion on the aluminum frame. I ride as long as there is no snow/ice on the road, and not raining too hard. I've learned that rain isn't that bad if it's not too cold. I've ridden down to 3F this year, and I was dressed well so was comfortable.

The way I found to change location was to first find yourself in the Leaderboard rankings. Then I click your name or image. This will take you to your profile for the challenge. There should be a link labeled "Change Settings" on your challenge profile page. The link takes you to a short form that has a spot to edit your location.

Way too many snow commutes lately, I am ready for the warm up. But yes wasn't really an issue this morning.
Michael Packer Wed Mar 13 07:59:00 2013
Today was my first commute in snow. Thanks to ICS for the full-fender installation I didn't bat an eye. However I was surprised by how heavily the Cultural Trail was salted in spots. Today was a mere dusting and could have been cleared with a broom. Not to mention that it will all be gone by noon.
charles starnes Fri Mar 8 14:39:00 2013

Michael Packer Tue Feb 5 08:17:00 2013
It was the first time dealing with ice/snow on the trail in my many years of commuting. Granted, it wasn't a lot, but when you see the path covered ice, twinkling in the street lights, it's rather intimidating.
charles starnes Sat Jan 19 15:08:00 2013
Got out for another ride today and kept it to 10 miles as the wind was 19 out of sw and gusts had to be 25 as almost got blowen off the road in some open places.

Michael,
Bar Mitts! I got a pair on ebay for $20 that had been used twice. I have one pair of gloves that are really thin and hands start to get cold below 50. Even this week with those gloves and the Bar Mitts my fingers haven't even felt the first bit of cold in them. And I did ride all week so the two mornings that were 21 and 23.
Michael Packer Thu Dec 13 07:59:00 2012
I'm thinking about looking into some snowmobile gloves for these 20° mornings. This is the first time I've extended the commuting season into December.
charles starnes Wed Dec 12 16:22:00 2012
Well today is 12-12-12 so i went out and rode for 12 miles.:)
John Cook Thu Dec 6 19:47:00 2012

charles starnes Thu Dec 6 17:06:00 2012
Got up to 46 here in my neck of the woods and got out for a 22 mile ride this afternoon. Not much wind and what there was gave me a push back home which is always good. Gives me 3603.8 for the year so far.
charles starnes Wed Dec 5 16:17:00 2012
Was a nice cool day for a bike ride as my toes got a little chilly. I should have put on my wool socks. Got in a 15 mile ride around the neighborhood. At least the wind was almost nothing. Am wondering how many more riding days i will have this year.

Got out this am with my son. He started out before i got out of the woods and got in a 32 miler and i met him out on the ride and got in 16. Got some rain and storms coming over the horizon now. The winds were out of sse at start but time we got done it was much out of the s at 15.
I have a trainer that i ride at home when i cain't get out. Got a great deal at Sears 2 years ago as they were almost giving them away and the wife rides it also. I try to get out and ride every day i can. Am not a fast ride but i get done when back at home.. Keep on peddling folks.
charles starnes Fri Oct 12 20:54:00 2012
Well today my son says lets go for a ride. I am not going as its too windy. But i get ready and we battle the wind out for 15 miles and then have a nice tail wind pushing us back home. So got home with 30 on the speedometer.
charles starnes Sun Oct 7 18:21:00 2012
I got out today and got in a 17 mile ride. It was only 54degs. so was nice and cool for a ride and a nice tail wind going east but heck coming back home.
Luci Sellers Sun Oct 7 07:04:00 2012
Lori, I agree on the inside riding. been going to Y to ride when I absolutely have to, but will ride outside as long as I can.
Lori A Hug Sat Oct 6 21:13:00 2012
Luci, Congrats on the 1000 mile mark!! That is awsome for just starting out! The trick is to ride as late into the year and start as early in the Spring as you can so it doesn't feel like you're staring over again at riding next year. That's what I've been "trying" to do the past few years. I've found indoor winter cyling is too boring for me, so I have to brave the cold!!!
charles starnes Sat Oct 6 20:57:00 2012
Well i had a disc golf tourney to play today and finished 3rd. Got no riding in either as soon as i got home went and sat in a tree stand waiting on some deer to walk by and no deer came by but was great just sitting and watching the world pass by. :)
Diane Bies Sat Oct 6 01:14:00 2012
Congrats Luci!! Remember to not compare yourself to those who seemingly do more. You are amazing! We all started somewhere and most not as great as 1000 from May to Oct. nor by bieng a grandma already either. You must be a young grandma and cycling will keep you young longer!
charles starnes Fri Oct 5 20:55:00 2012
Luci Congrats on makeing it to 1000 miles. That a lot of riding in 5 mths. I started in Jan this year and passed 3119 so far this year. Not a good day today for riding as it rained most all of it. So if i don't get some riding in tomorrow its gonna be a short week for me.
Luci Sellers Fri Oct 5 12:38:00 2012
Have to post a milestone for this grandma who just started riding mid May...I exceeded 1000 total miles today. Maybe not a big number for some, but I am very proud.
charles starnes Wed Oct 3 07:25:00 2012
Well yesterday was not a riding day as it rained most of it here and was windy also. Today is not looking much better.
charles starnes Mon Oct 1 13:03:00 2012
Lori I wish we could expand the one that has been started locally here but it not looking good. Yes we love that trail and have ridden on it 3 times now but it is a long drive from here.. We have started at Losantville and go to Muncie for lunch and back and also we rode to Richmond one time for lunch there also. 3 more miles and i will have 3100 for this year and most i have ever ridden also. Keep on riding folks.
Lori A Hug Sun Sep 30 17:39:00 2012
Charles, So glad you enjoyed the Cardinal Greenway. We are so blessed to have it here. I volunteer for several of their events. I ride south every day from Muncie on it. I met my usual yearly goal of 5,000 miles yesterday on it. The Challenge inspired me to ride so much harder and longer that I should be able to get another 1,000 in before bad weather stops me this year. Happy riding everyone.
Diane Bies Sun Sep 30 08:33:00 2012
So sorry Charles. I hope you will check us out next year. We are usually the first Sunday in October but had to move up a week this year. It is a great ride. Congrats on your miles! Alwesome total so far. Keep on riding!
charles starnes Sat Sep 29 22:44:00 2012
Sorry we didn't know sooner as we mite have, but we went over and rode 37 miles on the Cardinal Greenway Trail over on the eastern part of the state. It goes from Richmond In. to up north of Muncie and is a very nice trail. This is the 3rd time we have gone there this year.
Diane Bies Sat Sep 29 16:19:00 2012
Thanks Charles. Yes, teh date it Sept 29. Tomorrow.! IT promises to be a great day! Lots of fun and great weather! Hope you can come!
charles starnes Thu Sep 27 15:13:00 2012
Just got back from a 39.35 mile ride today and that puts me over 3023 for this year so far. This has been my biggest riding year also.

charles starnes Mon Sep 24 14:25:00 2012

Not looking good for any more riding if we get all the rain they talking about this weekend. Just got back from a 25 miler.
charles starnes Sun Aug 26 07:35:00 2012
Yes it was another good ride on the Wabash River Ride. # of us rode the 35 mile route. Great snacks at the sag stop also. Grandaughter loved the watermelon also. The Recumbent worked out well on this ride and am going to buy one in the near future.
Jay Hardcastle Sat Aug 25 20:00:00 2012
Great century ride on the Wabash River Ride Today. Fun returning to a ride i was event director for during the `80s (82-85)
Ken Kirkpatrick Sat Aug 25 19:29:00 2012
Loved the Wabash River Ride today.. We went ahead and did 108 miles just so we could chow down at a few more sag stops. The watermelon at the Fountain stop was the best of the year. Loved the chocolate chip oatmeal cookies at the loop intersection. And the jalapeno cornbread with massive doses of honey hit the spot back at the Fort.
charles starnes Fri Aug 24 22:55:00 2012
Anyone going to Lafayette to the Wabash Valley River bike ride tomorrow. 3 of us from here in Crawfordsville that i know of are going. I will have on a bright orange shirt and riding a recumbent. Mite not see this in the am so say hi if ya see me.
charles starnes Fri Aug 24 17:16:00 2012
Got out today and road into town and on the way back stopped at our local airport for a break and watched a crop duster come in for a fill up of what ever he was doing and took off again to where ever. Got home with 22.5 miles on the speedometer. I have borrowed a recumbent from a friend to try out. My average time has gone up and my speed has gone up also so am beginning to think i just mite get me one.
Ian M. Seecof Wed Aug 22 12:31:00 2012
Oops, that should read Urmeyville Rd to 100N and through the Paris sub-division.
Ian M. Seecof Wed Aug 22 12:03:00 2012
Dan, Just back from the Wed. ride to Franklin McDonalds SAG. We get there about 9:30. Gave up on Franklin Road and now head South on Mithoeffer to Clark School, Ulmey Road, then over I 65 to Mc D. Gave up on Greensburg Road because of the chip&seal. Have added on the extra miles via Boggstown and London. So many rides and so little time ! The rained out Red Bud Rambler is on the 25th. Really fantastic GT ride. Randy & Connie are great ride leaders. Lots of big climbs; at least they seem big on the tandem. Did the ride out of Clifty Falls last week to Streamcliff Farms. Had a few hills there as well. See you up the road, Ian
Dan Catlin Tue Aug 21 11:33:00 2012
@Ian Seecof, would love to meet you. I host a CIBA ride Thursdays at 6:15pm from our shop downtown Franklin on a similar route. Didn't even know about your rides. Chipseal (chips, anyway) on both N/S roads at once is a bit annoying, but hopefully they'll be sealed soon.
Dennis Richmond Mon Aug 20 21:40:00 2012
Just returned from the BGI South's Rest and Recovery ride that starts on the south side of Indy. Good bunch of riders. 28 miles
charles starnes Mon Aug 20 13:35:00 2012
I borrowed a Sun recumbent from a friend that hasen't been riding because he is having some pains from nerve damage he thinks. I rode it 5 miles yesterday getting things adjusted to fit me. Today i went out with Phil for a ride and when we got home had 30.6 so i logged in a 35 mile ride for today. Phil said my average speed went up from 11 to 12 mph average overall. I rode a little faster over all also so i am pleased with how it rode and performed also. Am going to ride it for a while and see how it performs over a week or so and go from there. I just mite have to get one if i can scrape up some money.
charles starnes Sat Aug 18 20:31:00 2012
It was a beautiful day for a ride out in the country side. Went with Phil and Gary to Ladaga to meet up with Ron and Kathy and Traci. We rode down to North Salem and stopped at the store-gas station for a cold drink and a snack. We were 25 miles from home at this point. Rode 32 miles back home and had 57 on my speedo when we got back home. Gary left us at 44 miles and went on out and made another loop to get in a 65 miler for his day. Was a great day for puttsing around the country side.
charles starnes Thu Aug 16 11:26:00 2012
Rain is almost to Crawfordsville now. Just got back from a 21 mile ride and wind is picking up at 11 out of ssw now. Hope we get lots of rain.
Ian M. Seecof Thu Aug 16 09:41:00 2012
We have developed a new route for the CIBA Franklin Trainer Ride. The road"improvements" along our age-old route have inspired new scenery while reducing traffic dramatically. Short option still available for those with commitments. Otherwise 35-40 miles with longer options. Mon/Wed/Fri. Usually 6-12 riders at 14-16 mph average. Limitless country roads, great conversations, sprint the overpasses if you like. No one dropped. Faster riders go on ahead. SAG at Mc Donalds.
charles starnes Tue Aug 14 12:32:00 2012
Was a foggy start to the day here but its burning off. Went out and got in a 22 mile ride this am with Phil. Nice weather for riding.
Jay Hardcastle Mon Aug 13 11:43:00 2012
Sunday was a rest day - 58 miles on Saturday - and 231 mile (with 8 commutes) in the prior 7 days! (But Sunday was 4 hours of hiking with family in Shades State Park!)
Kevin Whited Sun Aug 12 09:27:00 2012
We need riders for the INDYCOG team! If you're a member of INDYCOG, you're reading this post & you're not on another team, sign-up.
Dan Catlin Sat Aug 11 20:18:00 2012
The Goat Ride in Brown County was awesome today. Only got in three of the four loops, but rode an equivalent distance for the last one when I got home with the whole family. What a great day on the bike!
Adrienne Maurer Sat Aug 11 12:05:00 2012
23 miles this morning with 15 of my fellow Fort Wayne cyclists, just on the trails through town. We are so fortunate to have so many great places to ride!
Dennis Richmond Sat Aug 11 10:57:00 2012
Did 30 miles today up the Monon trail in Indianapolis from Southport area.
(no name provided) Fri Aug 10 20:31:00 2012
The wind was horrible today...
Dennis Richmond Tue Aug 7 21:53:00 2012
Just came back from cycling 32 miles with the Juvenile Diabetes group riding out of the south west side of Indianapolis. Great group of riders who encourage each other on the hills.
charles starnes Tue Aug 7 12:49:00 2012
Gary and Phil and i went out for a ride this morning and there was no wind to start out with. I had 32.352 when i got home. At the 25 mile mark i gave out a whoop for the 2000 miles i have ridden this year. I had been wondering why i was so tired. :) Keep on riding people as its good for ya.
Brent dawes Mon Aug 6 20:53:00 2012
Its hard to have a month off of work and be able to ride a ton of miles only to return to the normal life of 20-30 mile a day. I really felt I was getting back in to great shape...the before kids kind of shape...July I miss you already...
David M Baker Mon Aug 6 11:18:00 2012
Just keep on riding when Indy dose not get rain, rode 22 miles today
Dennis Richmond Sat Aug 4 10:34:00 2012
Just got back from taking a morning country ride on my "new to me" bike. Gotta love the freedom of cycling.
Diane Bies Fri Aug 3 15:03:00 2012
Indiana made it to 8th place! Great job us!
charles starnes Thu Aug 2 12:59:00 2012
Phil and i went out for a ride this am in the cool of the day at 64degs. Got back home and i had in a 27 miler. Was good riding today as not much of a breeze at all if any out of the sse. This puts me at over 1900 miles for the year on my log book
Anna Kirkpatrick Wed Aug 1 13:16:00 2012
Congrats to the Indiana riders who won the month! Especially the guy who won the bike!
charles starnes Tue Jul 31 12:10:00 2012
Just got back from a 22 mile ride. Took the short route today as it was looking like rain which we need anyhow. Had a few sprinkles on the way back to home but not enough to get wet. It looked like the clouds parted and the rain went right around us.
Michael Packer Mon Jul 30 20:43:00 2012
Finally got a long ride in that put me over the 500 mark. Thank you very much to the anonymous rider in the white CIBA jersey who kept pace with me from Broad Ripple to about 96th street. I really needed and appreciated the motivation to move!
Ken Kirkpatrick Sun Jul 29 15:13:00 2012
Made 1000 miles for July. First time I've ever done that..
charles starnes Sat Jul 28 20:51:00 2012
Took my rear wheel and flat to the bike shop and they found 2 or 3 pieces of glass in the rear tire which made the tire go flat when the air left it.
charles starnes Fri Jul 27 13:00:00 2012
Just got back from a ride with son and Phil. I got in a 40 miler today. Just about home and rear tire went flat so had to walk the last 1/10 of a mile to home. Nap time now.
Gary Starnes Thu Jul 26 13:29:00 2012
Woohoo! I achieved Platinum level. Got a 30 mile ride in with dad today and an addition 1.6 miles in with my 3 year old. She wanted to ride her bike so I followed her on mine as she rode around our block twice. She was wooohoooing and weeeeeee'ing and quite a bit of the way. She'll be out riding her daddy and grandpa ome of these days. lol
Cheryl Sunman Thu Jul 26 09:22:00 2012
There is another CIBA group called CIBA HOOTs that still has slots open if you want to try that one.
Dwight Kellams Tue Jul 24 16:57:00 2012
There are two different CIBA groups because the maximum number of members per group is 10. You will have to find a group that does not have the max 10 members. Only July and forward workouts count as the deadline for entering workouts in a month is midnight on the last day of the month; at least that is my understanding.
Dan Catlin Tue Jul 24 11:50:00 2012
Does anyone know why there are two different CIBA groups? (I'm a CIBA member but haven't figured out how to join groups yet, and don't know which one is which.) Thanks.
Sallie Pease Tue Jul 24 10:32:00 2012
Rain ride 2012 was awesome this year. Great Weather for riding, 4 friends and I all finished the 160 miles with time to spare. Had a great time, good pace, and a awesome SAG Driver Thanks SAG Lady we could not have done it with out your support.
Jay Hardcastle Sun Jul 22 13:24:00 2012
Great time yesterday on RAIN. Hope to get 3 commutes to work in this week to help finish the month.
Dwight Kellams Sun Jul 22 12:57:00 2012
It appears that half our team completed RAIN on Sunday!
Ian M. Seecof Fri Jul 20 15:35:00 2012
I see Indiana has moved up to 10th place. After RAIN weekend I hope we can move up to 7th. Keep spinning Hoosiers. Go CIBA !!!!!
Blaine Eddy Fri Jul 20 14:38:00 2012
My points from May were put on Elkhart-Goshen ...I live in South Bend-Mishawaka I corrected it in June and all points from that point have been added correctly..Didn't seem like much back then.. But, Now South Bend-Mishawakais in second place and another 1832 points could make a difference at the end.. anyone know if it can be corrected and how
Marcus Dennis Fri Jul 20 12:01:00 2012
Good luck to all you RAIN riders. May be a literal rain ride for you. Be safe.
Diane Bies Fri Jul 20 11:30:00 2012
Took a litle spin this morning just to keep my legs loose. Now it is off to Terre Haute for RAIN! It is going to be a great day!
charles starnes Fri Jul 20 11:12:00 2012
Got out for a 26 mile ride this am with Gary and Phil. Not much wind and a lot cooler also. Was a good morning for a ride. To all the RAIN riders hope you have a great day for riding. Be Safe and keep hydrated and Have fun.
Jay Hardcastle Thu Jul 19 16:44:00 2012
Rest day on Friday, then the RAIN Ride on Saturday. Can't wait to see Sunday's Leaderboard!
Tom Pritchard Wed Jul 18 21:41:00 2012
Hot weather has slowed down my miles over the last couple weeks.
charles starnes Wed Jul 18 11:50:00 2012
Got in a 28 mile ride this am and it sure is warming right up out there. Not much of a wind so was pretty nice riding.
Brent dawes Tue Jul 17 15:01:00 2012
Phil, I’m on the west side and I only ride to get myself ready for races and its nice to have daytime off in the summer for long rides. I would love to ride to work everyday if the wife would let me put the kids in the trailer.
charles starnes Tue Jul 17 12:57:00 2012
Got out a little bit earlier today and the temps was 76 but is now 94 so its gonna be another hot one. Got in 26 miles after i got back from sons house after stopping and letting his dog out for a pee run at noon. Drink lots of fluids folks when out and about.
charles starnes Mon Jul 16 21:16:00 2012
Got a late start today with temps in the 80s when i started and in the 90s when i got home but i did get in a 22.3 mile ride. Drank 2 bottles of Gaterade also.
Phil Perry Mon Jul 16 19:57:00 2012
It helps that I commute 30 miles 3-4 days per week. I ride mostly northeast Indy if you are in the neighborhood. I'll ride with anyone that pulls the whole ride :)
Brent dawes Sun Jul 15 11:00:00 2012
Phil Perry you get a lot of miles in, we should get a ride together if you can stay on my wheel? lol
David M Baker Fri Jul 13 10:31:00 2012
Been riding hard, and as long as it is hot, riding around 5:oo a.m. in the morning.
Bob Boehman Fri Jul 13 09:30:00 2012
Already back at work Brent! We will have to do a weekend ride. I am getting in the 30 a day on the commute though just not at 27 mph!
Brent dawes Thu Jul 12 21:38:00 2012
Tomorrow will be a much needed day off. Raced in the masters 35 plus last week had a race average of 27.6mph and it hurt ended up 8th out of 50 guys rode a short recovery ride Sunday to get ready for a 120 mile ride on Monday then 50 miles Tues,Wed,Thurs...my legs are dead....Bob you keep missing a great ride with us!
Nancy L Tibbett Thu Jul 12 19:17:00 2012
Bob - I haven't heard of anything but happy to pass your thought up the chain. I agree with you though- I've put in more miles as well and it's been great!!
Bob Boehman Thu Jul 12 09:07:00 2012
Curious if there is any plan to have a challenge for the last 4 months? This has been awesome to my total riding this year.
charles starnes Wed Jul 11 23:13:00 2012
Went out today for a 29 mile ride with son. Got my Hybred out as been riding the wifes Sun 3 wheeler. Have to get out in the am again on the wifes trike as no one else can ride tomorrow.
charles starnes Tue Jul 10 12:34:00 2012
Got the wifes Sun 3 wheeler out for another ride today as no one else went. Got home with 22.4 on the ole speedometer. Not the best of hill climbers but i made all the small ones i came across and a couple are longer and drawen out. O well it was a nice day for a ride as its a lot cooler this week.
charles starnes Mon Jul 9 13:14:00 2012
Took my wifes Sun 3 wheeler this am for my morning ride. It was nice and cool out today for a change. Got in 24.2 today. Stopped and visited with a guy and let him ride the 3 wheeler and he liked it. His wife came out and looked at it also, so maybe they get one.
Jay Hardcastle Sun Jul 8 13:53:00 2012
Great ride this morning, a www.rainride.org tune up - 55 miles in 3:07 - non-stop & solo. Nice to have cool breezes rather than a blast furnace. Only 2 weeks to go.
charles starnes Sun Jul 8 11:46:00 2012
Went out on the wifes Sun 3 wheeler this am for a short ride around the neighborhood and got in a 10.4. Temps are not going to be so high today. Its nice not to have a seat stuck up yer butt and not leaning on my arms but also is a little heaver than my Hybred so i didn't ride as fast either but thats ok as not going anywhere in a big hurry either.
Gary Starnes Sat Jul 7 11:35:00 2012
Just made my first MTB trip out to a local gentlemans "ranch". Been about 8 years since I've been on a MTB trail that challenging. Looking forward to more trips out. He has a pretty sweet layout with room to expand. One of these days I'll be able to do the trail Bo ways.
charles starnes Fri Jul 6 12:39:00 2012
3 of us went out at 9 and got in another 30 miles. Think the temps have gone up about 12 degs or so sense we started. Be sure and drink plenty of fluids when you got out in the heat.
Holly Jae Smith Fri Jul 6 09:23:00 2012
With the hot weather, I'm glad my morning commute is early enough to be a reasonably comfortable ride! Looks like waking up early on Sat/Sun is the ticket for getting it done this weekend. Be safe, everyone!
Luci Sellers Fri Jul 6 08:42:00 2012
first week with consistent 15 mile rides and the knees aren't complaining too much ! But they used to hurt at 8 miles, so I am making progress. Supposed to be 107 today so got up at 6 a.m. to get it done. Feeling good
charles starnes Thu Jul 5 12:41:00 2012
Yes Ken it is gonna be a hot one again today. It was 80 when i went out at 9am and now is 90. Had 30 on my speedometer when i got back home. Now its nap time me thinks.
Ken Crowell Thu Jul 5 08:35:00 2012
Crazy Hot in NW Indiana......102 on the 4th.....103 today. Be sure to carry extra water just to pour over your head.
Dennis Richmond Tue Jul 3 23:16:00 2012
Did an evening ride that started out hot and ended up being more comfortable after 9:00 pm. Gotta love these long days.
charles starnes Tue Jul 3 11:58:00 2012
Boy we sure could use a lot of rain. I would not care if it rained for a week. Got out this am for a 27 mile ride with son and Phil. We started about 9 am and temps was 75 and now its up to 84 and suppose to get into the 90s again today.
charles starnes Mon Jul 2 14:24:00 2012
Got out this morning before the heat came up and got in 27 with Phil. Got home in time for subs that wife had made for lunch. Going in to park this evening if not storming to play a round of disc golf,
Anna Kirkpatrick Sun Jul 1 11:45:00 2012
We got up at 4:00am, from Greencastle, left the house at 5:30 and rode 35 miles to Panera in Plainfield, had breakfast, and then rode home before the real heat started....good 70 mile ride!
charles starnes Sun Jul 1 09:19:00 2012
3 of us went over to Ill for a bike ride on Saturday. Mackinaw Valley Vineyard Tour just south of Pekin Ill. 2nd year for this ride and was well set up and put on. Had a great dinner after the ride also and great band. Will put this on our calendar for next year.
Joyce Craig Sat Jun 30 19:01:00 2012
Bummer. Haven't been able to ride the last three days due to travel. Can't wait to ride tomorrow!
charles starnes Fri Jun 29 11:20:00 2012
Went out this am for a ride and only got to 15 and had a flat tire so had to walk back almost a mile after the son went and got the truck. Now i have to change a tube before going to Ill for a bike ride tomorrow.
sam callaway Thu Jun 28 18:09:00 2012
106, made it home okay, poured half my water down my back and over my head on the way, but not too bad.
Blaine Eddy Thu Jun 28 15:55:00 2012
Hit the road after work at 101 degrees. 1.5 miles out with 15-20 mile winds. I enjoy my rides everyday. But, not today. About face head back to the air conditioning.
charles starnes Wed Jun 27 18:50:00 2012
We missed the nite ride this year, but will try and make it next year for sure its a fun ride.
John Cook Wed Jun 27 06:45:00 2012
I was a course marshal at waterway and Indiana, telling people to stay right as cars were coming west on indiana while riders were turning right to go east. Was a fun time.
Joey Visceglie Tue Jun 26 13:38:00 2012
The NITE Ride was a great ride!!! What a feeling to see all those riders out there enjoying the ride!!! Wish it never ended!!!
Susan Gackenheimer Mon Jun 25 12:53:00 2012
My husband, oldest son, neice and I did the Indy NITE ride dinner ride to Broad Ripple and then stayed for the NITE ride. Awesome night for a ride!
David Paulson Mon Jun 25 10:11:00 2012
We doubled up too: my wife Peg was a Zombie, and I worked a 6-hour volunteer shift, and then we took the tandem on the NITE ride that evening. Survived without too much trauma!
Michael Packer Mon Jun 25 08:06:00 2012
I'm hurting from doing the Run For Your Lives zombie infested 5k (I was a zombie) and then the NITE Ride on Saturday. Did anyone else double up and pay for it?
Joyce Craig Sun Jun 24 17:34:00 2012
Don't worry Neal. You are still awesome.
Rick Garrett Sun Jun 24 09:02:00 2012
Got to ride the NITE ride in Indy last night...it was fantastic!
Neal Bennett Sun Jun 24 09:00:00 2012
Finally made it to gold. Too bad I can't count my polo miles. I'd be platinum by now :)
charles starnes Sat Jun 23 12:51:00 2012
It was another nice day for a ride with My son and Grandaughter . Jessica rides in a trailer behind dad and slow him down enough that i can keep up with them. Got in a 27 mile ride today with a slight tail wind on the way home.
charles starnes Fri Jun 22 13:00:00 2012
Got out with son Gary and friend Phill for another 26 miler this am. The temps are down and so is the wind today. We have added small loop to our ride so now we are getting 26 instead of 23 and is a good loop to ride. We have a few routes that give us more but we doin't do them all the time.
Joyce Craig Thu Jun 21 19:51:00 2012
Whew! Got home just in time to avoid the wind storm. The wind really picked up in the last half mile and there was dust flying everywhere! It seems pretty calm now. We need the rain and that was such a tease!
charles starnes Thu Jun 21 12:42:00 2012
Went out riding this am with Phil and got in a 26 mile ride by time we got back home. Wind was at 14mph when we got home also and we rode into it for part of the ride and it sure was slow going.
Matthew J Whitt Thu Jun 21 10:29:00 2012
Almost at my 500 point mark, working my way up.
charles starnes Wed Jun 20 12:31:00 2012
Went out with my son Gary and got in a 23 mile ride and the wind was rough on the way back home but we did make it. Got passed by a young fellow that has passed us the last 2 time we have made this route ride. Its warming up really good out there so keep hydrated good. I am up to 1140 on my log book now for this years riding.
Gary Starnes Sat Jun 16 15:58:00 2012
It's a warm one out there. Hope everyone stays well hydrated. I know I did.
Holly Jae Smith Fri Jun 15 13:30:00 2012
@ Nancy - Thanks for posting the link about the Girlfriend Ride! I wish I would have known about this sooner! I won't be able to do the Columbus ride tomorrow, but I may still try to make the Dayton ride in October!
Nancy L Tibbett Tue Jun 12 14:31:00 2012
Hey Ladies - I just spoke to Paul Ashbrook (ride organizer) and they are still offering a $5 registration discount for the Girlfriend Ride which is this Saturday, June 16th.

Nancy L Tibbett Tue Jun 12 14:27:00 2012

Brent dawes Tue Jun 12 14:04:00 2012
Charles, Yes that was me It was just us two working the event in the track. I loved watching the event. i was so happy when I was told I could get my bike and ride... I wish all roads were that smooth...lol
charles starnes Tue Jun 12 13:30:00 2012
Ok Brent thanks for all the help. I saw a couple of officers walk up in the area of the start finsh line and not sure if it was mabe you and another officer. I was wearing a bright blue shirt and i was around the area talking with the yellow shirt guys a lot that day also and a lot of folks that were riding at the track. I had a brother with the middle name of (dawes). I got in another 23 mile ride today with My son and another friend Phil. Thanks for the reply Brent.
John A Taylor Tue Jun 12 09:40:00 2012
Back on my bike! :) Calf strain healed nicely. My son and I did Westwood Park Saturday and it kicked our butts! Thanks to whoever weed eated what a difference!!! :)
Brent dawes Tue Jun 12 08:58:00 2012
Charles, Im a police officer and was working security. I was just walking around the track and I helped get the riders out of the track on Georgetown Road.
charles starnes Mon Jun 11 12:17:00 2012
Just got done with a 23.87 mile ride. Did 20 with Phil and 3 more when i met up with my wife and grandson out on her 6 mile ride. Where were you working at Brent as i was with my son Gary watching as he did the 100 miler on the track and i was at the start finish line all day.
Brent dawes Mon Jun 11 09:42:00 2012
I was working at the Tour de Cure this weekend and it was really hard not to want to ride...so I did great event!
Brent dawes Mon Jun 11 09:32:00 2012
Michael, thanks yeah not a good idea to carry my phone in a race it would be hard enough to replace my bike in a crash, I dont want to replace my phone too..lol Thanks for the app idea I will download it.
Gary Starnes Sun Jun 10 12:43:00 2012
Did the century at the Brickyard Tour de Cure yesterday. According to the news, there were over 1500 riders doing one of the 4 different ride options in yesterday's tour. Was a good ride and met several riders from around the state and country. Look forward to next years tour.
charles starnes Sat Jun 9 22:47:00 2012
Went to the Indy 500 track for the Tour D cure ride and was pit man for my son who did the 100 mile challange. Took a lot of photos while there and saw some really nice bikes that i cannot afford.

Brent, I don't think there's a manual entry for speed averages. If you're using the Endomondo app to track your distances, it will tally your average speed in your profile. But I'm sure carrying a smart phone isn't very practical for a race :)
Bob Boehman Thu Jun 7 20:13:00 2012
Alright Brent the last week of June I will be off and will be there! I can do 23 if I am always at the back, 28 is another story but I will ride with you guys the first few until I get popped!
charles starnes Thu Jun 7 12:32:00 2012
I got out for a ride this am with another friend and it was so nice out and not much wind that we just rode and rode and when we got home had 30 on my speedometer. :) We stay out on the back roads or white road as some call them, but for some reason we sure saw a lot of traffic.
Brent dawes Thu Jun 7 10:38:00 2012
If any of you west siders want to join up we have a ride that leaves from White Lick Church in Avon at 3:30 most days. We all have kids to pick up so most days its about 25-30 miles with around 23-28mph average speed not including warm-up/cool-down. We ride for quality not quantity if you come bring your big boy pants....Bob Boehman be a man and show up.
Brent dawes Thu Jun 7 10:28:00 2012
How do you log speed for your workouts? I raced Friday and had an average of 27mph it was a hard race. I log my miles but not sure how to log average rates of speed. If any of you west siders want to join up we have a ride that leaves from White Lick Church in Avon at 3:30 most days. We all have kids to pick up so most days its about 25-30 miles with around 23-28mph average speed not including warm-up/cool-down.

Rode over 1,143 miles in May, Will see if that is enough for the 24 hour challange in Michigan June 16th.
John A Taylor Mon Jun 4 10:05:00 2012
Bad calf muscle strain yesterday while doing Fort Ben Mountain bike trail (hate that *&^%$#@ concrete slab obstacle!)...hopefully only out for a few days. :(

Too bad my 700+ miles in May will not count. I was cycling across Yucatan, Belize, Guatemala and Quintana Roo April 25th-May 25th and missed the May entry. Since other CIBA teams are full already, I have started another CIBA team for HOOTS Tandem riders.

Bob Boehman Sat Jun 2 22:15:00 2012
One of our teammates put about 300 miles in the other day and he logged them on each day that he rode and his points didn't update and they still haven't a couple of days later any suggestions as to why? He finished May with 511 and has 498 points which is way off with the bonus 20 for each day he logged.
charles starnes Sat Jun 2 14:49:00 2012
Well 3 of us went and rode a 35 mile ride at the B. & O. Trail ride today and it sure was windy but we made it with out any troubles.
Anna Kirkpatrick Sat Jun 2 13:35:00 2012
Just finished the B&O ride! Windy but nice tailwind all the way back. Nice temps for this ride!
Rhonda Meade Fri Jun 1 14:54:00 2012
My co-worker and I have been trying to commute to work at least one day a week. We started on Bike to Work Day, We are hoping to continue to do this each week. It is going to be hard because it gets hot and humid in IN and our office has no showers. But we are still going to try to stick to it.
charles starnes Fri Jun 1 11:57:00 2012
Anyone doing the B & O trail ride on the Saturday June 2nd. I think 3 of us from Crawfordsville are going to ride it. Have been over to ride on the Cardinal Greenway Trail 2 times this year.
Kevin Pauley Fri Jun 1 08:27:00 2012
First time I've hit rain in my short time commuting by bike. It wasn't all that bad!
Brent dawes Fri Jun 1 07:16:00 2012
New bicycle race today in Speedway. Come out to Main Street to see what all of the excitement is about.
Jay Hardcastle Tue May 29 11:25:00 2012
Another great commute today, and thinking about a ride with friends tonight. And BTW here is video from Indianapolis B2WD: http://www.youtube.com/watch
John Cook Sun May 27 15:03:00 2012
I live in fishers, will be riding to the ciba ride at carmel Meijer 1425 W carmel DR. start at 9:00am. see the ciba website for details, I am John Cook a Ciba Board Member. CIBA has all kinds of rides to meet people to ride with and there is a very strong ciba presence North of Indy. I ride a red specialized bike. See you there maybe.
Matthew J Whitt Sun May 27 13:17:00 2012
Anybody riding on the North side of Indy? I'm currently riding solo and I could use a partner...if for no other reason the inspiration.
Marcus Dennis Fri May 25 08:15:00 2012
Once you get commuting regularly, it feels strange when you have to drive. Love that feeling.
John A Taylor Thu May 24 09:56:00 2012
I ride to work twice a week around 38-40 miles round trip depending on my route. Just got clips on my commuter this week :) It is helping!
Kevin Pauley Thu May 24 08:17:00 2012
Any National Bike Challenge teams in the Bloomington, Indiana area??
Ed Brandt Thu May 24 07:46:00 2012
John Cook you are crazy, but I love the dedication. Glad you are on my team.
John Cook Tue May 22 16:25:00 2012
I ride 2 times a week to work as I have to get up at 2:40 am to do it. My commute is 61.5 miles round trip.
Michael Packer Tue May 22 08:21:00 2012
Man - you take two days off and down in the rankings you go! I knew I should have risked the weather yesterday.
Tom Pritchard Tue May 22 08:18:00 2012
I commute almost everyday to work except when temps are low and nasty outside. Average total distance between all the different routes I take is 10 miles. Been saving much gas.
Jon Frost Mon May 21 12:38:00 2012
I've been in Indy since September and rode the lonely trails and roads all winter to work. It was so great to see so many people out last Friday! I ride to the Fairgrounds for work nearly everyday and would welcome company. If you interested in meeting up around 86th Street, let me know. I'd love to have some new friends and more company than my music!
Joyce Craig Fri May 18 21:00:00 2012
I also rode to and from work every day this week. My car is so lonely in the garage also.
Ed Brandt Fri May 18 10:06:00 2012
Fantastic day for Bike To Work day. Never saw so many bikes on the Monon South of the Fairgrounds. Awesome.
John Raab Fri May 18 09:56:00 2012
It is so refreshing to see the streets crowded with cyclists like it was today
Anna Kirkpatrick Fri May 18 05:08:00 2012
I wholeheartedly agree! I commuted to work everyday this week, including today. I've never been able to do that before! The weather has definitely made a difference.
Nancy L Tibbett Tue May 15 11:57:00 2012
What a great week for Bike Week and riding for recreation, commuting, exercise, or just whatever!
Jay Hardcastle Mon May 14 12:35:00 2012
Great Weekend at Tour of the Scioto River Vally (www.tosrv.org), riding 210 miles with hundreds of riders from across the US. Looking forward to Indy Bike to Work Day, May 18.
patrick elzey Fri May 11 09:03:00 2012
Thanks for the invite Bob! I needed an excuse for a new bike this summer! ;)
Scott Hoke Thu May 10 16:49:00 2012
Bob & John...
Just joined your Pedaling Pedagogues. Thanks for the invite, Bob!
Darlene Wefel Tue May 8 22:07:00 2012
I'm ready to rock and roll.
Julia Wilson Tue May 8 11:16:00 2012
Just joined CIBA-Ride team!
Bob Boehman Tue May 8 10:52:00 2012
We need four more of the Pedaling Pedagogues John, I am working on two right now!
John Raab Tue May 8 10:46:00 2012
I need more team members for the pPedaling Pedagogues. You need not be an educator to join; all are welcome.
Nancy L Tibbett Tue May 8 09:06:00 2012
To Kevin Crawford - I had a similar issue, but thought perhaps I actually logged on the incorrect date. I'll ask the support team....Thanks for the feedback.
Ronald Gurth Tue May 8 08:33:00 2012
Just formed a 2nd team to support Central Indiana Bicycling Association.
Join CIBA-Ride.Org and let's keep our ride organization as the most active in Indiana!
John Cook Tue May 8 07:42:00 2012
Team CIBA is full, Thanks to all that joined. If you want to ride for ciba and did not make the team you can create a CIBA team 2 and see if you can fill that team as well.
Kevin Crawford Mon May 7 21:23:00 2012
Is anyone else having a problem where after logging miles on a day, the entry shows up instead on the day before after entering?
Denise Kelley Mon May 7 20:02:00 2012
Cardinal Greenway needs seven more members for a team. I know you are out there so sign up and ride!
Samantha Keesee Mon May 7 15:53:00 2012
Made it home just before the rain. victory.
John Cook Sat May 5 13:47:00 2012
Join TEAM Ciba if you are a ciba member, need 7 more riders.
Tom Pritchard Fri May 4 13:20:00 2012
A bit overcast today, but plenty warm. Great day to ride.
Nancy L Tibbett Thu May 3 08:52:00 2012
Great morning for a ride in to work. My first official miles of the challenge have been logged - not certain why I don't have any points yet....
John Raab Tue May 1 10:23:00 2012
My favorite perk of commuting is meeting other cyclists on the way to and from work. Most are friendly enough to say hello, or have a conversation.
Quentin Gurney Tue May 1 10:14:00 2012
I've got a really nice Gary Fisher Sugar 4+ for sale if anyone is interested.....
Mark Stosberg Wed Apr 25 21:17:00 2012
I blog about electric cargo bikes and family cycling at http://bikes-as-transportation.com/ (from Richmond, Indiana)
(no name provided) Tue Apr 24 18:14:00 2012
I just started commuting to work. I feel lucky to have the opportunity to use my bike instead of my car. I find myself riding to the store for groceries now too.
I hope to log 1000 miles this year. I can deal with rain, (no lightning please) and I can ride until the temp drops below 30. I wouldn't mind logging my running miles and hitting 1000 miles running also.
Tom Pritchard Thu Apr 19 14:13:00 2012
For my miles in 2012 so far, I'm just under 500 miles..
Tom Pritchard Thu Apr 19 14:09:00 2012
The 1,000 mile goal has my passion since 1985. Still today I easily break that goal every year, except in 2008 when I had cancer. I'm back going strong. Planning a loaded 3 day 2 night tour starting June 1st, 2012.
Daren Deffenbaugh Wed Apr 18 09:00:00 2012
My goal is to use my four bikes as much as humanly possible this year!
Neal Bennett Tue Apr 17 08:04:00 2012
I hope to play as much bike polo as possible.
andrew addison Mon Apr 16 16:27:00 2012
My goal is to run 1000 miles and bike 1000 miles for 2012
John Boughton Tue Apr 10 15:02:00 2012
My intention is to continue riding daily, every where, and to get others to join me.
David Cooprider Tue Apr 3 07:38:00 2012
My goal is to ride 1000+ miles in 2012
Jay Hardcastle Wed Dec 31 18:00:00 1969
Good luck everyone, and ride SMART.
