Bike Records
While writing my recent bike post I realized that my bike records were more than two years out of date. I thought I'd better updated that, then today as I wrote this I realized unfortunately few of the records had shifted in the intervening time. Oh well, let's do this anyway.

In 2019 I pushed my record for consecutive commuting days ridden to 9. In 2020, I pushed the earliest commute to March 9, which is my earliest on record. It's also my only commute this year before we started working from home, but such is life. My latest commute remains December 20, 2017.
I'd note that if I was somehow able to do all all my best months together in the same year, I'd hypothetically commute to work 102 times for 1814.6 miles. I'm pretty sure that's not feasible without having no life besides my bike. By comparison, I've only averaged 997.4 commuting miles a year since I started this back in 2013.
Oh yes, and my total commuting miles of 6395.6 from 2015 onward has taken me as far as some hobbits went before the epilogues began, by a scant 13.6 miles. Even a terrible commuting year should get me to the Havens, although this year may be so bad it doesn't happen unless I count non-commuting miles.
