Last Milestone Of 2019?
Not a bad afternoon. I wonder when I’ll be able to say that again. With the arrival of winter weather in the week ahead, I may have finished my 2019 cycling season today. And, for what it’s worth, I hit my target. I wanted to ride enough miles today to make 2019 a Top 10 season.
1. 2015 | 6,236 miles
2. 2016 | 5,620 miles
3. 2018 | 5,358 miles
4. 2014 | 5,236 miles
5. 2011 | 5,113 miles
6. 2012 | 5,005 miles
7. 2017 | 4,933 miles
8. 2009 | 4,800 miles
9. 2010 | 4,650 miles
10. 2019 | 4,412 miles
In recent seasons I have been riding about 400 miles after October 31, and if I were to do that again this year I would push 2019 a notch or two higher. Is that worth the effort? I don’t think so.
I expect to get back above 5,000 miles next year. While my “official” goal will be only the 3,000-and-something miles I will need to hit 75,000 all-time, my pursuit of 100 career metric centuries will push me to ride longer. I’m going to need 13 metric centuries in 2020. That will be a proper challenge; I did only 5 this season.
