johnridleyI finished out the year with the odometer at 8815. Miles on Jan 1 2006 were 4126, so that's 4689 for the year. That's about what I expected; 21 miles a day, 5 days a week.
Nothing particular going on with the bike, I'm lubing the chain about twice a week with a DuPont teflon+wax spray lube to see if that makes the chain last longer. Winter is hell on my chains, with the 4 miles of riding each way over wet sandy gravel.
If this stupid weather keeps up, I swear I'll be forced to take the studded tires off. That's sure to make it snow and/or ice storm. I'm really looking forward to some nice winter weather, I want to get some sledding done in addition to cycling on the snow.
