2023 Mileage: 2986.3
Michelle and I have come up to Mackinac for a couple days' summer getaway. Because prices for lodging on the island are absolutely insane, we are staying in Mackinaw City, and made a day trip to the island today, where we rented bikes (an adult tricycle, non-recumbent, for this guy) and rode around the 8-mile perimeter of the island.
Sadly, I didn't think to bring my auxiliary battery with me, and my phone died a few miles into the ride, so I have only incomplete stats and video. But estimating the best I can, I think that we rode for about 90 minutes - quite slowly and leisurely, making a lot of stops along the way.
The biggest difference I noticed from my home recumbent tricycle was that with the much higher center of gravity, it rode very differently and necessitated my care and caution regarding this issue.
This gave me a ride of 8.0 miles in about 1:30.
