2021 mileage: 4474.0
The forecast today was for pretty much all-day rain, so I went in and climbed on our stationary bike late this morning. From a list I got via Google of "best baseball movies," I chose 61: the list said of this 2001 film (which was partially filmed in Tiger Stadium, made up to stand in for Yankee Stadium), "Billy Crystal's ode to the home run chase between Mickey Mantla and Roger Maris is basically Baby Boomer catnip." Its title is a double reference ... Babe Ruth's old record, which was broken, was 60 home runs, and it happened in the 1961 season. This gave me a ride of 25.5 miles in 2:04.
