I guess I need to rephrase my original post.Originally posted by Doctor Morbius
I keep track of hours, but I'm not a competitive cyclist. I exercise for fitness, fat loss and to keep the family inherited diabetes at bay.

I record hours, distance, weather conditions and I also include
details of how I was feeling throughout the ride (if it is greater than 2 hours), for every training ride.
I find that when I cycle on my training routes (and I have up to 30
different routes covering combinations of flat and climbs, with varying degrees of gradient), that there can be variables that affect ones performances.
I try to keep an accurate record so as to draw more precise
conclusions as to my fitness levels throughout each and every year.

Curious... How does everyone record their data? I use an MS Access dbase that I developed, flexible and can change it to suite my needs..
I know there are a couple programs that one can use to record their cycling info.
So what do you use...Software, journal etc?

I use a free (yes, free!) Excel spreadsheet that I downloaded from bikemania.biz. It's called "BikeMania Cycling Mileage Tracker". The exact URL that appears to work is http://www.bikemania.biz/BikeMania_Cycling_Mileage_Tracker_p/bikemania_mileagetracker.htm
Give that a try and see if it works. I like it. It doesn't let me record time or comments, but tracking miles is really what I'm most interested in anyway. I've tracked weather conditions, how I'm feeling, how many bugs I accidentally ate (just kidding on that last one), but when I'd grab my journal at the end of the month, all I wanted to know was how many miles I'd ridden. This product also has graphs that show you how many miles per ride, miles per week/month. It's pretty great, considering the price.
