Without the cyclometer, I might have just said "pfffft" and taken the night off.
Gary, I think you're doing great. It's been a lot of fun reading about your escapades on the bike (you're a good writer, BTW) and watching the progress you (and others, myself included) have made in the last year. Keep doing whatever works for you!
Take care,
Steve
