This morning, for the 170th time this year, I rode to work. It was a chilly 26 degrees on that ride to work. On the ride home, just after turning south onto Crowley Road from Sycamore School Road, I reached my 2010 riding mileage goal, 7,500 miles. 4,768 of those miles were from commuting to work.

It became the first year of my adult life that I rode more miles on bicycles than I drove in motor vehicles. It’s a trend I want to continue.
