My mileage record looks a bit dishonest.
I messed up the date attribution for the forum Avebury ride so that it appears I did that big mileage yesterday. Anyone seeing me fresh, with courier bag, sans bidon on Kings Road yesterday would know I was on a pootling commute. I've entered yesterday's pootle on the date omitted by my cack-handedness, mind.
I'm quite enjoying estimating on a daily basis my mileage then verifying it against my cycle computer. Oddly I'd never tracked my distance on a daily basis before. I've usually only been interested after an intentional 'long ride' or otherwise as a cumulative total over several months- though several times this has been thwarted by computer fail and losing the darned thing down a drain.
Distance is only one measure of cycle usage, mind.
