As has become my tradition, here’s my 2009 year on a bike saddle. This year I expected to spend less time riding, but found that despite the time demands of a new baby and traveling a lot for work, I was able to get out and ride quite often. Check out my 2008 stats for comparison. I didn’t set actual goals for 2009, and won’t for 2010 either. Still, it’s fun and useful to see how I compared to the past.

2009 Cycling Stats

4 organized rides (same as 2008)
46 individual rides (2 more than 2008)
1,579 miles (96 more than 2008)

I’m stoked to add Maui, Hawaii to a list of states ridden. While I’m not sure if I’ll rent a bike every time I visit the islands, I’m enjoyed the experience and am happy to have it one my cycling “resume”.

Oh, and in March I battled some nasty weather to watch a stage of the 2009 Tour of California along with some friends. That’s me cheering on Lance.
