Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

About 6000km, or ~3,700 miles.

Or looking at it another way, a whole bunch of hours.

Not enough to "beat" out the mileage junkies here, but plenty for cat 5 racing and brevet riding. More than enough from my GF's point of view...

5947 miles.

All junk miles by the way.

Don't worry, I'll ramp it up in the 2nd half. I always do.

I started road riding in March. About 800 miles or so. Loving [almost] every mile of it. Also lost a bit of weight too

I stopped for lunch one day in May, and that made me lose track.
