I finished out at 6,480 miles!!!! mr. will leave me if I try to do more.

I think everyone who rode be it a mile or 10,000 miles is awesome - we rock ladies!
Like Silver and others I took the bike out for one last spin and closed the year with 7,360 miles.
I hope everyone has a safe and joyous New Year!Marcie

2007 started chaotically, so the only real cycling goal was to do my favorite fundraising ride fixed. Raised some money, got on the bike and rode. Mission accomplished. Got in around 2500 miles too. Some chaos managed, so 2008 is off to a good start.
