Up until today I biked every day in June. I decided to take a rest day and start next week with rested legs. This week marks the 10th in a row of 200+ miles. June mileage stands at 443.18, 55% of the way to my 800 mile goal.

My bikes, Canyon Endurace and Lynskey R300, carried me 3,882 miles so far this year. My Blue Norcross AL bike, mounted on a Wahoo Snap smart trainer added 542 miles as I rode in Zwift. Zwift is on hold for the summer but will return in the fall. I noticed the tires on the Blue bike softened in my absence, time to air them up.

Road construction challenges my biking with several routes not suitable for biking. Soon FM 2100 construction will interfere with a route I use every week. I may need to drive to starting spots like I did last Friday in Galveston.

My YouTube channel contains clips from my bike rides. Subscribers are few but I enjoy creating the videos after completing rides. Sometimes the video shows scenes I did not notice while on the bike. I like looking in the background for surprises. My GoPro Hero7 Black takes great video but the camera freezes at unpredictable times. Hopefully I can find a solution. I bought a cheap action camera (Akaso V50X 7000) on Amazon to see if it is more reliable. For awhile I struggled getting good audio in the video but the GoPro mic adapter solved that in combination with a lapel mic. Video production on a moving studio can be interesting. I did find out that the GoPro can survive a fall from my bike. Next the Akaso arrives and I will put it to the test. Last week I moved the GoPro from my helmet to the handlebars of the Canyon and Lynskey. This lowered the weight on my head and neck and the camera angle.
