started with biking as a kid, then a paper route for 6 years (age 12-18, 4 miles RT), then a lull in biking, then moving to seattle (2004) and bike commuting and endurance rides, ironman in 2006, biked across the country with my dad in 2007. lost job in 2010-2011, then new job was a 36 mile RT commute up thru end of 2014. now current commute is 29.2 miles and 1800ft gain. it's tiring, especially with frequent double headwinds, but traffic sucks. i don't mind rain and probably have 20k miles in it.
favorite bike was my fixie that i rode for several years before getting hit by a truck (their fault) and breaking my hip.
most enjoyable ride was a 156 mile day about a week after completing biking across the country. rode with my friend who was in the throes of ironman training (he would qualify for kona and place in the top 300) and i had to wait for him often (he was still a better runner than me).
steepest grade was 21% in maine with fully loaded touring bike.
favorite ride i've repeated is marblemount to washington pass on hwy 20 (north cascades highway) about 120 miles RT.
most enjoyable ride was probably the one where i first went on a date with my wife (bike ride + trivia and food).
most scenic was probably the route to lake koocanusa or going to the sun road, both in montana.
most number of flats on a bike commute day = 3.
total number of accidents = 3 (one cutting through a parking lot and slamming on the brakes for an endo; one getting clipped off with a right hook and ending up on a trunk (no injuries); broken hip). accident free for 10+ years now.
favorite time to ride is midnight after a long day in the office (no traffic, some semblance of peace in the world).
ideal situation would be to retire and fall short of 4x around the planet, but we'll see. started an annual goal of 5k miles now that we have kids and biking is my only form of anything.
