I rolled my Canyon Endurace bike out the driveway at 11:20 AM headed for the&#8221;Kingwood to Ramsey Road &#8211; Huffman&#8221; route. I biked <strong>36.84 miles<\/strong> putting me ahead of the pace needed to reach my 700 mile goal for September. I need to ride <strong>23.34 miles<\/strong> each day and unlike August when I didn&#8217;t ride the first day and got behind quickly I am ahead for now. Once I get behind it requires extra effort to catch up.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I am making progress for the week too with <strong>77.86 miles<\/strong> so far. If watching the Tour de France before going on my bike ride doesn&#8217;t inhibit me too much I can reach 200 miles for the week.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It may be a new month but August weather is still with us. 92 degrees at the start made it feel like a sauna and it went up from there to 97 when I finished at 2:26 PM. What it was like: start 92 (68% humidity, 80.2 dew point), mostly cloudy, wind S 12 mph. Finish 97 (56% humidity, 79.1 dew point), mostly cloudy, wind S 8 mph gusts 17 mph. At the rest stop was the first time the wind felt good. I stood in the shade eating a Clif Bar drinking cold water from my CamelBak.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In 2020 I biked today&#8217;s route 9 times, 6 on my Canyon Endurace and 3 times on my Lynskey R300. The last time was on August 13th and the first time this year was March 14th. A summary of the rides.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><a
