On the verge

I am on the verge of reaching my goal of cycling 1,000 miles in 2008, and it's not even September yet! Today, I rode 32.4 miles, bringing my seasonal total to 975.7 miles. My ride today was to scenic Busse Woods bicycle trail, following the Meacham Grove trail/Roselle train station/Plum Grove Road route outbound and the Weathersfield Way/Salem Road/Schaumburg train station route back. My tentative plan is to surpass the 1,000 mile mark on a 28-mile Labor Day ride to Poplar Creek bicycle trail and along Schaumburg streets. Stay tuned!
