I passed 2900 miles for the year today

2902 to be exact. It was so nice today that I wanted to get out and ride for a while. See previous post for details. Right at the end of the ride I passed 2900 miles for the year. My previous best was 1775 in 2003. That was when I got a new Klein Q Carbon Race road bike.

I have over 2200 miles on the Lemond Poprad this year vs 671 on the Klein. My Klein Mantra is hanging on the wall in the garage.

Tunnel Ridge owns the coal loadout area on W.Va. 2 just north of the Pike Island Locks and Dam, and 1,470 feet of the trail system crosses the coal company's property. Tunnel Ridge currently is in the process of renovating the property for its loadout area. more...
