Not sure how they do the calorie calculations. The numbers at the bottom of the second graph? You mean the mileage? I try to stay fit but it's not getting any easier. duh my bad

Ever ridden past a mile-long field of clover? The sweet scent is heavenly!!!!

And of course the ever-present Oregon air permeated with sun-baked evergreen trees. OMFG.

Sounds fab, and if you enjoy that sort of thing you also should try cycling in Provence when the lavender is in flower. I know it's going to take a while for your finances but maybe something in your ideas box for the future ( or creep inside BHDs luggage if we can get her to the start of the Camino de Santiago).
