June was hot and dry in southeast Texas.  This plus staying in town most of the month set the stage for hitting my monthly goal and then some. We did go to Dallas the last weekend of the month for Word Camp Dallas so this precluded any biking that weekend. I did see a bunch of riders while I was in Richardson that weekend. My goal for June was 574 miles so I exceeded it by a nice amount. No organized rides this month. My schedule and distance to rides did not line up. July is the month we normally take a vacation but that has already happened and the next vacation will be after the Hotter’n Hell Hundred in Wichita Falls in late August when we will take a trip to Colorado, my first time to visit that state. My total miles for the year at the end of June is 2791.
