Lazy year, hope to do better in 2023.

I definitely want to roll 300 in one ride this year. Preferably solo. 🐫

I drove 50k according to Google. Not bad better than the previous year.

That’s 65 clicks more than my current longest in a day. Will take a big mind-shift to get to do that extra distance.

Have an idea, but might sleep on it; hope it goes away. 😊

Smurfy ride in Pretoria in December.
Best place to do it IMO

Audax?

Have a look on the audaxsa,co,za website.  There are a couple of 300 rides in Western Cape this year.

Any vert data there, Spidey

Strava says 168 355m
So not so much as I wanted but good enough for the highveld.  I try to keep it at 3000m per week.

Another cool stat:
I map each week that I have been sick for the past 10 years.
You can see then by way of pattern what weeks are "dangerous" and you can try and avoid people and germs and etc etc.
Week 6-9 and week 31-34 are danger zones.......

To deviate a slight but from the thread, how do you capture sick periods/days etc (I assume excel)? Would have loved if Strava had a manual entry option to note flu or whatever...

I store all my stats on excel yes.  
Would be a cool function from Strava to add on there, yes.

CTL per week.  
I road indoor every day during the full lock down.........amazing to see how the fitness came down......
Also....in 2019 cracked my elbow.....took 20+ weeks to get back on some form.

[Spinnekop]

Last boring stat I promise.

Mapping riding temps per week, you can sort off have a band of temps and where winter is starting and where the good "mild" rides start after winter.
Obviously riding different times of the day influences the stats but you get a broad idea over time

I.e week 18-20 temps drop and week 23-25 temps start going back up.
