Most cyclists like to keep track of many statistics associated with their riding. I don't have a cyclocomputer, SRM or GPS. I have a GPS in my phone, but if I ride further than 15 miles, it seems to kill the battery. I'm not really interested in speed or wattage, but I am interested in how far I rode. So, I use mapmyride and gmap-pedometer. You've probably noticed that I'll link to those sites periodically. Recently, due to twitter, I signed up for dailymile. Pursuant to its name, I attempted to post every bit of distance. After a couple of months, I started to feel enslaved, so I've decided to stop using it. Sometimes, that's how I feel about this blog. There's no reason to write about what I do on bike. Maybe I should get better at photography or something.
You don't have to document every single mile. I never record my commutes on dailymile. Takes away from time I could be on the bike or otherwise enjoying life.
ReplyDeleteI loved that you used pursuant. And I agree wih Jennifer. :)
ReplyDeletebut it's daily!
ReplyDeleteI'm anti-structure when biking. Taking data or keeping track does seem to weigh me down.
ReplyDeleteBrendan did a good job. Daily mile is rocking.
