"804.7 after April -- 100 miles of Barry-Roubaix on the 15th and 80 miles of gravel today (oh! the wind! and ah! the sleet!) made up a lot of my 100/week goal.  But I'm not sure that's sustainable in the long term LOL. "

"156.6, almost all of it inside. How big a change from the fall. (and 2022: I was at 444 by this point last year.) New job, a lot closer to home = less biking. Gotta get out just for fun now! "

"Who's "sensitive" to folks abiding by the rules of the road? It's the whiff of self-righteousness that I don't dig. But upon re-reading your comments from November, it wasn't nearly as "offensive" as all that.…"

"Not sure the root of sensitivity to folks following the rules of the road.  They're key to safe cycling, and a solution to many of the inherent safety problems of mixing of varied vehicles and pedestrians on the same surface.  Traffic…"

"Ha, yeah, that's a consideration. I'm sort of puzzling now through what my usual pattern of record retention should be to begin with. But I'm pretty satisfied with my law-abiding-ness. LOL. "

"The answer here may depend on how you ride.  If you stop at stop signs and lights, and otherwise follow the rules of the road, then your recordings would help you press a case, or, be exculpatory if there's a case against…"
