I'm with the rest of you on the "miles is miles" thing. I count EVERY darn mile I ride...and why shouldn't I? Heck, some of the "worst" miles come when I'm on the MUP heading back home from a long ride on the weekends. It's crowded with all sorts...runners, walkers, strollers, tricycles, rollerbladers, dogs, you name it. At times I feel like I'm barely moving trying to maneuver my way through there...but in the end, I absolutely still count those 6 miles.
