2008 had many biking highlights:

• most miles in a year – 5,131. Previous high was 5,030 (1999).
• updated the look of Texbiker.net. WordPress is the engine that drives Texbiker.net. In March I attended WordCamp Dallas. WordCamp gave me many ideas on how to enhance the blog.
• 4,514 miles on my road bike, Mercier.
• 617 miles on my mountain bike.
• rode 146 days on my road bike.
• rode 40 days on my mountain bike.
• average miles per ride: 25.91.
• Added a set of Bontrager wheels which seem to have added a little speed to my road riding. Bought these at the Hotter’n Hell Hundred in Wichita Falls.
• Rode the 75 mile route at the HHH and this year I stopped and shook the hands of a number of airmen thanking them for their service.
• Most touching moment at a ride: the T38 jets flying up Scott Street in formation at the HHH start line.
