This past year I have hit many milestones. Not just riding related, of course, but it has been a productive for sure. To be honest I find it amazing that the only milestones I really remember are those I accomplished on the bike. I'm not the self indulgent type that will list all of the things I've done here, though I dont expect many people are actually reading. As the year is now nearly over I have been thinking about the things I want to get done next year. This is another cool thing about cycling (or walking or running or swimming or any sort of true physical activity for that matter) compared to driving. When a motorist passes 1000 miles in their new car, so what? Sure there may be a few that see it as a "milestone" but what have they really accomplished. I remember passing 1000 miles on my new bike, and just today i passed 2000. I can see the results in my legs and feel it in my lungs. It is a special feeling.
I love my bike, but I can't wait until I get a new one. I think I might be addicted :)
