    Holy moly, that has to be one of the best/worst stories I've heard!

    My ride: I had a 7 am meeting, so only had time for a short one, so I set out for my 9ish mile route. I decided to focus on my speed. I had a headwind for some of the way and for whatever reason felt like I didn't have much in me, but I did my best. As I was on the home stretch I thought "boy, this ride seems *awfully* short!". Thought it was just a different perspective after doing my first 20 miler on Sunday. So I get home and check the GPS (handhelt unit I just throw in my Camelbak to track mileage & speed) and it says I did 7.5 miles. Huh? So I go to log it on mapmyride.com and realize I completely left out a section of my route! DUH!
