    20" wheel diameter times pi equals just over 62.83 inches
    divide it out and you get 5.7 revolutions of the wheel

    so if I film myself landing 6 revs would that work?

    Not for me, but it's not my contest. Wheel sizes are usually something
    other than the exact amounts listed on the tire. Also you are then
    counting your actual rolled path, rather than a straight-line
    distance.

    Counting wheel revs sure is easier for informal measuring though. Great
    to get you in the ballpark, but for a "real" number you should measure
    the total distance.
