September Goal Secured, Highest Mileage Week Since May
By the time I got home from church the temperature was 93 degrees but at least the humidity was “only” 55%. I got dressed and rolled my Lynskey Helix bike out to start the ride at 1:29 PM. I only needed 13 miles to reach my 720 mile goal for September so I decided to ride the Kingwood streets. Some streets repeat from previous rides and some don’t. I saw several what I call “casual” bikers during the ride. I finished at 3:07 PM biking 19.38 miles securing my September goal and increasing my week’s total to 253.12, the best week going back to at least July 3rd. This made up for last week not getting 200 miles. Weather: 93 degrees, 55% humidity, dew point 74.4, partly cloudy, wind W 7 mph; Finish 95 degrees, 52% humidity, dew point 74.2, partly cloudy, wind S 7 mph.
