    Thumbs up Velobambina!

    How do you do it! I am in awe. I was checking out your bikejournal stats today - over 17,000 km this year so far!!! Amazing!

    Dang!!!! And I thought I was so cool shooting for 5,000 miles, ~8,000 km!
    That's **CRAZY** (in a very good way!!)

    LOL---you're going by km not miles.

    We've had a record drought this year, so I haven't missed many days since a bad weather (snow/ice) February. Plus, I've needed to ride to deal w/a huge amount of stress & loss this year.

    Hey, 10,000+ miles is still amazing. I am struggling to get my 2500 and I rode a ton in the summer... Sorry you've had stress and loss to deal with though. I'm glad riding has helped. I can understand why.

    Way to GO, Velobambina! I'm in awe! When I was muddling around being depressed and horrible last winter someone told me (without knowing about all that stuff) "There's no problem so big you can't bike from it!"

    Which I keep comong back to, cause in a way he was right Biking sure improves my outlook on a lot of stuff - and is surely one of the healthiest ways to deal with stress.
