2025 By the Numbers

Well, after my indoor ride today the 2025 mileage year is in the books. Once again I hit the 6,000 mile mark in 2025.

We went on a couple long trips this year, those being Cabo in January and spring training in March. I also missed 25 riding days due to the condo remodel in Tahoe, which we finished in late May. Consequently I missed a lot of riding opportunities in the early part of the year. I had to really ramp up the miles during the summer to catch up.

The statistics:

• 6260 miles is the most since I started keeping stats in 1995
• 73 miles more than last year
• Ninth straight year increasing annual mileage
• Set mileage records in June, August, September, October and November
• 259 total rides was 3 more than last year
• 24.26 miles per ride average, up from 24.17 last year
• The 202,000 feet of climbing was 1,000 more than last year

Even with all those missed days, I really feel like I am reaching the upper limits of what I can do. I COULD ride more miles, but I'm not sure I WANT to ride more miles. We'll see.

Later.
