Two days ago, my ride of 34.3 miles put me over the 90,000-mile mark for all-time riding. (I've been riding since August 1981.) Today's ride, which gives me 5,601.2 miles for the year, pushed it to 90,062.3 miles. The Earth is 24,901.55 miles in circumference at the Equator, so you might say that I've ridden around the world 3.61 times. Today's ride was wonderful. The cool temperatures (54º to 57º Fahrenheit) and high wind (22 miles per hour when I left the house and 21 miles per hour when I returned) kept most cyclists off the trail. The sunshine was glorious. I can't wait to ride again tomorrow.
