“Serious” Bicyclist

Heh. I’m glad the person responsible for this headline saw the need to describe the featured cyclist as “serious.” Otherwise, I would never have been able to distinguish him from a leisurely cyclist:

Daniel Chew is more than halfway to a goal he set for himself as a young man. He thinks he’ll achieve it about age 75 — if he doesn’t get hit by a car first.
Mr. Chew, 44, who lives in Shadyside, wants to ride a million miles on bicycles (he’s already worn out at least 15) in his lifetime. He clocked his 600,000th mile on Sept. 10.

Whew, that sounds tiring. This year I have set a personal record for miles ridden. If I continue at my 2006 pace for the rest of my life, I will reach Mr. Chew’s goal when I am approximately 238 years old. At that age, I’ll probably need a softer saddle.
On another note, I’ve recently added albums to the photo gallery.
