After yesterday’s rear tire problem stopping my ride short on the planned route I was hoping I could still get over 200 miles for the week but it did not happen. I added some to today’s route but it wasn’t enough and the week’s miles ended up at 196.82<\/strong>. While I can be sad this is still a very nice week total compared to what I averaged prior to retiring: 150 miles. Today I rode 26.09 miles<\/strong> with an average speed of 14.8 mph (15.0 mph on RideWithGPS.com) and a max speed of 21.5 mph. The average cadence was 80.4 RPM. Year to date miles are 4648.30<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

The weather continues to be fabulous with 86 degrees at the finish of the ride. Wind was almost calm with just enough to help feel cool. The clouds are scattered with small puffs here and there. The blue that showed through was the same brilliant color.<\/p>\n

My new rear tire performed as expected and no flats or other problems. In my attempt to be prepared I ordered two new Continental Gatorskin tires and 5 spare tubes. I hope I don’t have to use any of these any time soon. I ordered the 25mm wide tires because there has been some talk about the wider tire being more comfortable and can be inflated to a lower pressure.<\/p>\n
