Lothlórien: oooooooooooooooh, pretty! But I don't get this tradition of souvenir ropes. I already have bungees. But never offend the locals, so I'm all "Uh... okay... sure, fine. Thanks for the, um, rope!"

Somewhere along the way, I made some math errors. Probably a few times along the way. These are corrections. The error rate is small but nonzero. Of course, these ignore all the Murknorth to Murksouth biking runs that I made and logged as eight miles (estimate) vs. the actual ten (gmapPed). I don't feel like going back and adding all of that in. ^_^

Tuesday's miles: 11.9
Wednesday's miles: 11.8
Miles out of Hobbiton: 936.6 (was 942.8 as of today, error +0.7%)
Miles out of Rivendell: 478.6 (was 463.7 as of today, error -3%)
Miles out of Lothlórien: 16.6
Miles to Rauros Falls: 372.4

Distances:
Hobbiton to Rivendell. (458 miles)
Rivendell to Lothlorien. (462 miles)
Lothlórien to Rauros Falls (389 Miles)

Stupid Hobbits are in boats. Sure, laugh it up, fuzzy feets and your zililions of miles per day. We'll see how much you laugh when we hit the rapids and my HYBRID BIKE OF DOOM doesn't even slow down and you're all carrying canoes over your heads on rocks! So there.

Also, I really need to get my bike into the shop for general service this fall. I think the chain may be a bit stretched.

I tried to watch "The Fellowship of the Ring" with the kid yesterday.

He kept comparing various parts to "Star Wars" and complaining that I should skip ahead to the "exciting parts".

This is the same kid who wanders around the house, humming various themes from various Star Wars movies.

Weird.
