Early in 2007, I resolved to bicycle at least 300 miles. I choose that number because I believed I could get at least 30 rides of at least 10 miles in over the year, even if I moved out of Pentagon City. Sure enough, I did move out of the very bike friendly Pentagon City to an Alexandria neighborhood that was considerably less appealing for bicycling. However, that did not deter me, thanks in large part to my brother’s bicycle rack. I’m quite pleased to not that I met my goal (on a June ride with Erica through Holmes Run Park), but exceeded it considerably. My 2007 miles biked total was:

650.2

I’m quite pleased that I was able to get so many in, it was a lot of fun.

Here are the places I picked up these miles:

Alexandria, Va.
Arlington, Va.
Falls Church, Va.
Mount Vernon, Va.
Vienna, Va.
Reston, Va.
Herndon, Va.
Annandale, Va.
Washington, D.C.
Bethesda, Md.
Avalon, N.J.
Stone Habor, N.J.
Wildwood Crest, N.J.
Wildwood, N.J.
State College, Penna.

I don’t know that I will get many more miles or locations in 2008 than 2007, but I’ll see what I can do.
