I think of April being a wetter month but May is a challenger. Tuesday was shortened by rain, Wednesday was a washout and Saturday I got caught in rain twice. Sunday was another rainout. I made up for the Sunday rain after church watching stage 9 of the Giro D&#8217;Italia, the men&#8217;s and women&#8217;s UCI XCO MTB races, the also wet and neutralized Tour de Hungary, and the Itzulia Women race. On the upside I rode 188.87 miles and maintained a small cushion over the pace to reach my 750 mile goal for May. I was on the bike 5 days out of seven. I rode my Cervelo Caledonia 3 times and Lynskey Helix 2 times. The average ride was 37.77 miles. The longest was 44.78 miles.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/Screenshot-from-2023-05-14-16-13-02.png?ssl=1\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"463\" data-attachment-id=\"62402\" data-permalink=\"http:\/\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/screenshot-from-2023-05-14-16-13-02\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/Screenshot-from-2023-05-14-16-13-02.png?fit=2235%2C863\" data-orig-size=\"2235,863\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"5-14-2023 Week Bike Rides Summary\" data-image-description=\"&lt;p&gt;5-14-2023 Week Bike Rides Summary&lt;\/p&gt;\n\" data-image-caption=\"&lt;p&gt;5-14-2023 Week Bike Rides Summary&lt;\/p&gt;\n\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/Screenshot-from-2023-05-14-16-13-02.png?fit=600%2C232\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/Screenshot-from-2023-05-14-16-13-02.png?fit=800%2C309\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/Screenshot-from-2023-05-14-16-13-02.png?resize=1200%2C463&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"5-14-2023 Week Bike Rides Summary\" class=\"wp-image-62402\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/Screenshot-from-2023-05-14-16-13-02.png?w=2235 2235w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/Screenshot-from-2023-05-14-16-13-02.png?resize=600%2C232 600w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/Screenshot-from-2023-05-14-16-13-02.png?resize=800%2C309 800w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/Screenshot-from-2023-05-14-16-13-02.png?resize=640%2C247 640w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/Screenshot-from-2023-05-14-16-13-02.png?resize=1536%2C593 1536w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/Screenshot-from-2023-05-14-16-13-02.png?resize=2048%2C791 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><\/a><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">5-14-2023 Week Bike Rides Summary<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I&#8217;ve done 11 May bike rides so and need 331 miles to reach my 750 mile goal, over halfway to there.
