My goal for 2014 was 200 miles a month, or 2400 miles for the year.  I can’t believe I exceeded that by over 900 miles!  I definitely spent a lot more time in the saddle this year than my previous years…

I love data.  It’s why I’m such a Strava nerd, so here is a chart I threw together to compare over the years!

What’s on tap for 2015?  I’m not sure.  I don’t know what I want my mileage goal to be.  I far exceeded my expectations for 2014, but I don’t want to get too ambitious for 2015.  So maybe I’ll make it a nice, even 3,500 miles?
