Here's another way, perhaps unconventional way, to quantify "well traveled": I've been using Strava to record miles since 2014. I've been using Wandrer since 2020 to quantify where I've been. I just recently passed 0.01%. I've ridden 1 ten-thousandth of the rideable roads on planet Earth (according to Open WSM). I'm closing in on 1% of the state of California. A goodly amount of that mileage has been on a number of Rivendells in my stable. It is indeed possible to be adventurous close to home.
I am #1 on the Wandrer Leaderboard for Contra Costa County California, the county where I live, and where Rivendell Bicycle Works happens to be. I'm also #1 in Calaveras County and #4 in Alameda County. I've got a growing footprint in Wayne County Michigan, where my Sam Hillborne lives. Wandring is kind of like the OCD version of aimless wandering. Haha.
