At the start of today’s bike ride I didn’t think of it as a recovery ride but as the miles started to pass my legs sent the message along to the rest of my body. The route was my most frequently used one, “Atascocita – Walden – Huffman”. I rode 33.61 miles<\/strong> putting the week total at 175.3 miles<\/strong> and the month at 710.14 miles<\/strong>. With 4 possible biking days left in April I should top April 2018 miles and probably 800 miles<\/strong> too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Starting at 11:54 AM the weather was picture perfect for biking: 79 (59% humidity), fair, wind NE 12 mph. Finish 84 (48% humidity), a few clouds, wind NE 6 mph. I dressed for cooler weather with shorts, long sleeve jersey, and a short sleeve jersey. I didn’t need the long sleeve jersey so much for coolness but rather for sunscreen. I started taking a mild antibiotic for a skin condition and it makes me sensitive to the sun.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
