November 5, 2023 

This is a  update, my project to  or  at least 4200 miles (the length of the TransAmerica bike route) in the Jewish year of 5784. Click here to read more about this.

Today’s mileage: 25.07 – today in
JYTD 1 Mileage: 425.48
Where I am at on my imaginary ride of the TransAmerica Bike route: west of Damascus, Virginia (rough route map)

Summary: I took off from Temple B’nai Israel in OKC, rode to Joy Mennonite Church (504 NE 16th St), then back to Temple, then north on Penn to Grand blvd (in Nichols Hills), then west along the south side of Lake Hefner, first to the area on the SW corner of the lake to take pictures of the wintering pelicans, then north up to Britton Road. My google fit tracker data stops here,but I probably rode on from here either to my in-laws house or to our home. Either way, I’m not counting those miles.

  1. In this grand scheme of things you’ll secure an A with regard to hard work. Where you lost me personally was first in all the particulars. As as the maxim goes, the devil is in the details… And that could not be more correct here. Having said that, allow me reveal to you exactly what did deliver the results. Your article (parts of it) can be highly engaging and this is possibly the reason why I am taking an effort in order to opine. I do not really make it a regular habit of doing that. Second, despite the fact that I can see a leaps in reasoning you make, I am not really convinced of how you appear to unite the points which help to make your conclusion. For right now I will, no doubt yield to your position but trust in the future you actually connect your dots much better.
