Telling My Story
Today was my first ride in my 2016 Thousand Mile Bike Challenge and it felt really good!
Update: today I broke 500 miles and I’m only at the five-month mark! And to make it even better, I beat my best time for a 25 mile ride by over 13 minutes!
Today I hit a personal best of 30 miles with my turnaround point at Mt. Vernon.
Turns out I missed mile marker 3, my turnaround point on the Mt. Vernon trail, and ended up turning around just shy of mile marker 2 resulting in a 25.2 mile ride.
Airplanes were taking off over Gravelly Point today at National, so I decided to take a hyperlapse video of one doing just that.
In the past week Arlington County mailed out a brochure detailing alternatives to traveling around the County by car. One of the things they highlighted was the Arlington Loop: a 17 mile loop combining four of the County’s bike trails.
