After church I set out on today’s bike ride following what I label the “Oakhurst – Valley Ranch” route. I rode 28.13 miles putting the week’s total at 149.16 miles and September now stands at 253.58 miles, 36% of my 700 mile goal. I should be at 50% but due to not riding several days while my wife was ill I am trying to make the shortage. I am 97 miles short of where I should be which I think I can make up if the weather will cooperate. It might rain Tuesday through early Thursday.

Weather while biked today: start 91 (50% humidity, 70.1 dew point), partly cloudy, wind NE 9 mph. Finish 93 (47% humidity, 701. dew point), partly cloudy, wind E 12 mph. I thought starting the ride at 12:05 PM would put me in the heat but it wasn’t as hot feeling as I expected. It was only 2 degrees warmer when I finished at 2:21 PM.

I treated this ride as a recovery and rode easier which Strava agreed with.

Nothing out of the ordinary during the ride but maybe the video caught somethings I missed.

Monday I plan on riding and the weather looks favorable. I may ride the Spring Creek Greenway which I have not done since July. This is a longer ride which will help me reach my goal.

I am making progress over previous years with all but 2018 below 2019.
