Well, I just got to over 3000 miles for this year. In 2010, I set a modest goal of 3650 miles (10 mpd) having made 3582 in 2009 without having a goal. But then my knee conked out, I only made 2695 miles and I had to skip the FANY ride. I did the FANY ride again in 2011 (after lots of PT and a SynVisc shot). On January 11, 2012 (less than two weeks), I'm going to have a right knee replacement. After that my goal will be to get back to riding and get in good enough shape to do the GFLBT in early June and the FANY ride (500 miles across NY) in late July!

Happy New Year to all!
