Ride Or Die America · The Compiled Record
This is the ledger — every named bicycle route Coach RODA has ridden, how many times, and the short list of what is left. Can you outride Coach? Can you out-live Coach on a bike? How many days are you willing to ride?
The corridors, drawn city to city. Schematic — the shape of the record, not a GPS track. The receipts live in the mileage ledger; this is the geography of a life on a bicycle.
Counts are Coach's own record, route by route. Route miles are the published lengths of the routes themselves, counted once no matter how many times he has crossed them.

Route-miles counted once (each route a single time): 23,300+. How to read this page: completion counts are Coach's own testimony and record, kept the way he kept them on his first website and in his route library — he owns every Adventure Cycling route map on this list. Route lengths are the published lengths of the routes. The documented journey mileage — 66,545.4 miles through November 1, 2026 — is tracked separately, receipt by receipt, and is never blended with route lengths or counts. The map above is a schematic of corridors between cities, not a GPS record.
