Sometime last year I set an ideal goal of cycling over 2000 miles this year (which works out to a doable 15 miles 3 times a week). Some unexpected professional and personal commitments came up and, interesting, I’m on track to do the same 700 miles I did last year.

I think my goal this year was too lame – doing a century (100 miles) ride sometime during the summer. Next year I hope to at least do something much bigger, like the great bicycle ride across Iowa (>470 miles). But so far my adult life has never been stable enough to make such plans, so I don’t expect 2001 to be that way either.
