2 years on the bike!

almost forgot that today is the anniversary of my 2nd year of riding! i still remember how excited i was when shopping for my bike and bringing home my dolce! (and having to wait til monday after work to ride it cuz it was already dark when we got home sunday night!) and of course... falling over immediately with my clipless pedals! and naturally i had forgotten to put on my gloves... so i had gravel in my hands!

my second year (jun 28, 2005 - jun 27, 2006) i had a grand total of 7555.95 miles!

my first year (jun 28, 2004 - jun 27, 2005) i rode 6648.30 miles...

that's a grand total of 14204.25 miles in 2 years/24 months!

i shall go for a nice rice after work.... even though it's hot and humid (for the desert!) just to celebrate!

You're obsessed!! (But in a good way!) Isn't it nice to find a sport that you don't get tired of/burned out on?

WOW Cali, those mileage numbers are pretty darned awesome!!! Great Job!

Enjoy your celebration ride tonight :D

T~

AND my celebration glass of wine, too! (They just told me to make sure my windows are up... is the weather going to NOT cooperate with me doing an anniversary ride?)

??windows up??? huh??? does that mean there's a lot of wind/sand blowing about?

lol! no... it means that one of those isolated thunderstorms must look like it's blowing in!http://www.smileycons.com/img/emotions/216.gif

HAPPY ANNIVERSARY, CALIGURL!!!

I hope that you will be able to enjoy a ride after work.....and, don't forget your celebratory glass of wine :D ...

Your mileage is very impressive, too.

holy cow woman! You have more miles in a year than I have combined I think! :eek: :D Congrats and happy anniversary :)

And here I was pleased I am over half way toward my second year goal of 3500 KM!

I'm well-impressed Cali!

Thats just awesome... cycling is not a passtime or a hobby - its a calling, a passion, a yearning in the veins

Obsession is gooood!

Woo-hoo! You're my new real-life hero!

Wow Cali - those miles are impressive! Congrats - I hope you got your ride in.

Caligurl- Impressive mileage! And I thought I was doing a lot! You take the cake, that's for sure! Happy Anniversary and many more!:D :D :D :D

however i didn't ride ruby.... the rain had come through.... and i guess it rained pretty good around our house... cuz there were huge puddles in the road... and lots of sand and rocks... soooooo i took my first mountain bike ride of the year! i had a blast! i tooled around on the side dirt roads.... climbed up toward the water tower.... laughed! oopsed (but never fell!) i even wore my way cute oakley mtb outfit! just for the occasion!

lol....your posts always make me laugh....

anyway, no matter, a ride is a ride no matter what bike you took. You had fun and it was a celebration ride and "two" glasses of wine also!!!

PS....loved your little cycling smiley face!
