Annual Cycling Results

The much anticipated digest of my personal cycling statistics has been released for publication. Not one, but two cycling seasons are graphically displayed below, each data point representing the mileage logged on a given day. By popular demand, I am again showing annual trendlines, with fifth-order polynomials selected for the way they follow the data points diligently, but not slavishly, just like trusty dogs.



Total mileage for 2008 came in at 6776, down from 2007's epic 8123, but still respectable. I passed the century mark on six occasions, up from four the previous year, with a 133-mile trip to and from Bull Valley taking top honors (although still modest compared to the chart-busting 190-mile brevet of May 5, 2007).
