Updated May 15 (YTD 2481.80)
01.01.2008 - Having exceeded last year’s goal of 2,007 miles by almost 1,100 and finished with 3,102.5 miles, my goal for 2008 is to traverse via two-wheeled transportation a total of 3,000 miles during the present calendar year, and to document each trip no matter how short or long via online mapping services and listing them below. New for 2008: I will be differentiating between commuting miles — those to work, appointments or errands — and recreational mileage.
