Wish I had an odometer on my bicycle. Today's trip:

- Approx. the Grove St. PATH Station in Jersey City to the Newport Ferry
- 38th and the Hudson River in Manhattan up to ... um, I think 96th St and Riverside Ave
- 96th and Riverside across to Central Park
- Central Park's main roadway down to Columbus Circle entrance
- 59th or 60th or whatever the hell that cross street is over to the Hudson River Park again
- 59th and the Hudson River Park down to the Downtown Boathouse at Pier 26
- Pier 26 back up to 38th and the Hudson
- Newport Ferry back to the Grove St. PATH station

and twenty minutes of kayaking.

I have no idea what I've done other than make my quadriceps and undercarriage very, very upset. But it was worth it.

LOVE my bike.

It gives one an idea of the geography involved without specifying more than one wanted to know about the anatomy.

Side note: if Expedia Maps is to be trusted- and I"m not sure it is- I did somewhere between thirteen and eighteen miles today. I am inordinately proud of the fact that the only part of this distance where I stood out of the saddle was when I did so to avoid compression injury, not because I needed to do so to get enough force to pedal uphill.

You could try the Gmaps Pedometer to measure the distance...

Oooh!

*does some clicky clicky*

15.6 miles on the bike, it turns out. Not so bad.
