I ended the year with 5,273 kilomtres cycled, with 57,167 metres of elevation gain. Only 400 of those kilometres were after September 8th. Once I finished the Whistler GranFondo I lost a lot of my motivation. My month with the most distance covered was June, with 960 kilometres. November only had 25 kms. My longest rides, in terms of distance, were the 160 kmValley GranFondo in Langley and the PGAMO in Penticton. My longest (in terms of time) ride was 5:59:26 when I cycled the Triple Crown in Vancouver. From my house it was 126 kms and included 2,553 metres of climbing.
My original goal for the year was 6,000 kms. I was well on my way, but lost a lot of motivation during the last quarter of the year. Work, life, weather, curling, golf, etc. all took priorities for me. I intend to bike much more in 2019. I'll be cutting my gym time down and spending more on my bike. I joined a racing team, so this will involve much more training and I'll be entering in crit races with the team. I'll still be doing the fondos, but will more strategic on which ones to enter.
