Arriving at 14,000 Miles at Lyrecrest

As I arrived at Lyrecrest (my workplace) on the morning of Wednesday, June 23, I eclipsed the 14,000 mile mark on my odomoeter. After not riding as much as originally planned over the weekend, I thought I could predict when I would hit my mark.

With some careful calculations and a little guessing, I figured I would be arriving at Lyrecrest. Unfortunately, I got to Lyrecrest one mile short. I realized that I had rounded up a few of my mileage runs and that my odometer is running on borrowed time until I get a new battery in it.

I did what any dedicated cyclist would do...ride laps around a short driveway/parking lot to get that last mile in. Now every Sinfonian will know that one lap is about 0.15 miles.

In writing this posting, I realized that posted almost exactly three months ago after I had eclipsed 12,000 miles (actually 12,200 miles).
