I don't have a cyclocomputer on my Brompton and I am not inclined to get one either. I like the casual, relaxed, unfold-it-and-go vibe the bike gives me. I has also found that, within the DMV, I ride several of the routes consistently since I use the bike mostly for transportation. Thus, I have created the following table of regularly-used routes where I use the Brompton.

Brompton Segment Distance (est) Comments

home to Plaza del Mercado (there and back)
5.2 mi Poplar Run to Foggy Glen & across Layhill to Parker Farm
[RideWithGPS]

home to Plaza del Mercado (Hutchison Loop)
6.8 mi Poplar Run to Tivoli Lake, Osterport, Hutchinson, Briggs, etc.
[RideWithGPS]

home to Glenmont
3.0 mi via Poplar Run Dr to Layhill

home to Glenmont
2.5 mi via Tivoli Lake Blvd

Tenleytown to OLLI
1.1 mi ∃ many MapCards (multiple options)

OLLI to Woodley Park
3.9 mi ∃ MapCard

OLLI to AdMo
4.4 mi extend Woodley Park across Calvert St Bridge to Columbia & 18^th

Silver Spring to Kaldi's
0.5 mi taking the most direct route to Kaldi's via Dixon; this segment usually ×2 (round trip)

home to Takoma Park 9.3 mi when Glenmont thru Silver Spring Metro closed for Purple Line construction, this ride is necessary

Brompton Segment	Distance (est)	Comments
home to Plaza del Mercado (there and back)	5.2 mi	Poplar Run to Foggy Glen & across Layhill to Parker Farm [RideWithGPS]
home to Plaza del Mercado (Hutchison Loop)	6.8 mi	Poplar Run to Tivoli Lake, Osterport, Hutchinson, Briggs, etc. [RideWithGPS]
home to Glenmont	3.0 mi	via Poplar Run Dr to Layhill
home to Glenmont	2.5 mi	via Tivoli Lake Blvd
Tenleytown to OLLI	1.1 mi	∃ many MapCards (multiple options)
OLLI to Woodley Park	3.9 mi	∃ MapCard
OLLI to AdMo	4.4 mi	extend Woodley Park across Calvert St Bridge to Columbia & 18^th

home to Takoma Park	9.3 mi	when Glenmont thru Silver Spring Metro closed for Purple Line construction, this ride is necessary

I often ride the Brompton in an ad hoc manner since it fits that need perfectly. Rather than add each and every one of these ad hoc rides to Brompton Segments, I merely do my best to recall the route I took when I get home, calculate the total mileage via RideWithGPS, record that mileage in the CalendarEntry, and then delete the map.

Capital Bikeshare login

I began to actively ride Capital Bikeshare {cb} in 2016. Since I typically only use a small subset of the {cb} stations, for the sake of brevity and clarity in the bike calendar entries below, I have developed a shorthand notation as follows:

These guidelines represent current practices for my private bicycling calendar. The creation of Calendar-2022 began by making a copy of Calendar-2021. What followed next was a massive amount of editing to remove the details of the 2021 calendar to make way for 2022 content.

The goal is to enter information into this calendar for every day of the year. For days that I ride, the root source of information in these CalendarEntries is the TallySheet.

for days that I ride:
- bgcolor = lightgreen
- the name of the route (base name from CycliStats list followed by an optional qualifier [e.g. MoCo Suburban: Takoma Park])
- the number of miles for the ride (from TallySheet, rounded to the nearest integer),
- a JournalEntry-style name for the ride (from TallySheet, but possibly modified if necessary)
- any milestones that were reached on this ride,
- a link to the map for the ride [optional],
- an indication that there is a RideJournal entry for the ride [optional],
- the current cumulative mileage (from CycliStats) for:
  1. Week … with the weekly total on the last day of the week being displayed in boldface,
  2. Month and percentage complete for the month … with the monthly total on the last day of the month being displayed in boldface,
  3. Year … with the annual total on December 31 being displayed in boldface,
for days that I ride on Capital Bikeshare:
- bgcolor = lightgreen
- identify all of the Capital Bikeshare segments I rode from the table, Legend for Capital Bikeshare.
for days where something is happening (ride, meeting, etc):
- bgcolor = wheat
- the name of the ride or event
for days that I don't ride:
- bgcolor = lightsalmon
- my excuse(s) for not riding [optional]

Place significant events on the calendar entry in "red" next to the date as a heads-up. Examples include normal holidays, special occasions (such as birthdays), trips planned, etc. There are always noteworthy bicycling events that are not rides that should be noted on the calendar.

Lastly, the Notes section of each month is a placeholder for rides and events that I want to track annually but may or may not deserve a slot in the calendar.

Update as of Feb 2020: Updating the entries in the Notes section annually has always been a hassle. I tried a new technique which eliminated the laborious graying out of an entry that has not been advanced for the current year. I replaced it with a technique marks each entry as follows:

✓ note has been updated for the current year; these are typically rides that occur every year about this time

× note has not been updated for the current year

ride has been entered into the calendar for the current year

Update as of Nov 2017: I added a Comments subsection in Notes for further explanations of calendar entries as necessary.
Update: 29 May 2018: The notion of adding Comments to the Notes never took hold. Therefore, I got serious about adding more details than a mere calendar entry would give and kicked off the concept of CalendarJournal (aka J_Cal). J_Cal exists at the end of the file and contains further information about a ride as well as RouteNotes and more.
