38m of mystery
Grand total of (mycyclinglog) 3237 miles. And again, the Excel spreadsheet adds 38 miles to that for a total of 3275.
- The LHT won the award again, also being my top ride last year, and my commuting miles outtotalled by road miles by 61.
- The longest ride for 2008 was 62 miles on July 20th. That was around when our computer got "eaten", so there's no blog entry, which is fine. It was a nice ramble from Louisville to Frankfort, with the fam picking me up there and then to our friend Pam's house for cards.
- I did better with some longer rides, adding another 60m, 57m, 53m, 47,, 42m and a 41m mixed-terrain ride. A full-on century is certainly a goal for 2009, and getting some ride partners will/would certainly help.
- I didn't buy a bike this year (I think).
- The RB-1 has seen much more significant mileage as surrogate for LithoDale. I think '09 will be the year he actually buys a bike that's within 3 sizes of his own tall-ass body.
- I did better in '08 doing mixed-terrain rides, with 12 of them, including a nice effort in Casey Co. for the first time.
- Really it was a solid year on the bike. If I can capture some miles in the lost tennis spring, 2009 will be even better, and let's hope the RCCS has some influence with that too.

I would be interested in doing a century up around Louisville if you end up working up to one. The one I did had quite a bit of climbing and while I don't mind climbing, I would appreciate one that was less hilly. If you want to do a hilly century, I have a good loop mapped out down here in Berea.
Congratulations, Tex, on steadily increasing your annual total and for riding more than me this year. WooHoo!
