With all the BBQ I make and eat, and all the beer I brew and drink, biking a ridiculous amount helps keep me somewhat in shape.
So ... I spend lots of time cycling around the foothills of Denver, which I always track on Strava.
Anyway ... as you may remember from 2025 Cycling Goals, I have 5 cycling goals this year:
Here is an update for these goals as of the end of July, 2025:
- #MetricCenturyEveryMonth
I did one Metric Century done in July, but it was a big one: 2025 Triple Bypass Ride. This is the 48th straight month that I've been able to finish at least one 100km ride. July of 2021 was the last month I did not finish a metric century. - #8200MilesIn2025
As of the end of July, I have logged over 4,877 miles in 2025. This is the second month that I am "ahead" on plan for the year. There is no looking back now. - #16EverestsIn2025
16 x 29,032 = 464,512 feet. At the end of July I have logged over 285,060 feet climbed. This puts me ahead of the goal by over 15,000 feet. - Triple Bypass Ride
CHECK ✅
If you read this blog, you probably know that I did the 2025 Triple Bypass Ride this month. I even did it slightly faster than last year. - #GCCUSA
I've raised $1,676 of my $2,500 goal. I suppose I'll start to get a little more active begging for money soon.
