Rain was supposed to be rare today and it was but I could hear thunder in the distance. The rule is if it isn’t raining I go for a ride so off I went. My wife thought I might be calling for a ride back but It did not happen. In fact as I neared the end of my ride the clouds parted and sun shone through. 85 degrees, light SE breeze, 85% humidity made for a moist ride as far as perspiration went.

I was passed by one rider on the way back home otherwise no riders. I am moving to the goal of 3,100 miles for the year by the end of July.  Saturday could put me over the goal.
