I never thougt I'd stick with this but I have. I'm not that detailed of a guy (my wife does the checkbook). But, data like this helps me set goals and reinforce what I've done. I was happy with my riding last year and I hope to do better still. I'm confident in this.
I probably wouldn't bother if I took many different routes to work. But I don't--one is 6.5 mi and the other 4.5, so it's a no brainer to enter. I don't log my around town riding, as I don't always break a sweat.
