The temperature was 74 at the 11:29 AM start rising to 81 when i finished at 1:31 PM. Not the typical winter day but good for biking. Today I rode my Canyon Endurace bike following what I call the &#8220;Oakhurst &#8211; Valley Ranch&#8221; route. I needed to ride 13 miles to hit 200 miles for the month and the ride totaled 26.31 miles bringing December road miles to 213.5. Last December I biked 281.3 road miles and 255.7 Zwift miles. I am short of those numbers this year but there are 8 days left. How this year compares to previous years in miles.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/12-23-2020-Strava-Year-Progressions-YTD-Miles.jpg?ssl=1\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"535\" data-attachment-id=\"55085\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/12-23-2020-strava-year-progressions-ytd-miles\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/12-23-2020-Strava-Year-Progressions-YTD-Miles.jpg?fit=1653%2C1105&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"1653,1105\" 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=\"12-23-2020 Strava Year Progressions YTD Miles\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/12-23-2020-Strava-Year-Progressions-YTD-Miles.jpg?fit=600%2C401&amp;ssl=1\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/12-23-2020-Strava-Year-Progressions-YTD-Miles.jpg?fit=800%2C535&amp;ssl=1\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/12-23-2020-Strava-Year-Progressions-YTD-Miles-800x535.jpg?resize=800%2C535&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-55085\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/12-23-2020-Strava-Year-Progressions-YTD-Miles.jpg?resize=800%2C535&amp;ssl=1 800w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/12-23-2020-Strava-Year-Progressions-YTD-Miles.jpg?resize=600%2C401&amp;ssl=1 600w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/12-23-2020-Strava-Year-Progressions-YTD-Miles.jpg?resize=640%2C428&amp;ssl=1 640w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/12-23-2020-Strava-Year-Progressions-YTD-Miles.jpg?resize=1536%2C1027&amp;ssl=1 1536w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/12-23-2020-Strava-Year-Progressions-YTD-Miles.jpg?w=1653&amp;ssl=1 1653w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Weather conditions for the bike ride.

Power out numbers point in that direction. Average power was 107 watts with the max at 387 watts. Both those numbers are lower than yesterday but close. I split riding time at 50% in zones 1 and 2 and 50% in zones 3 to 7. Zones 6 and 7 total 15% riding time. That is higher, probably due to the stiff headwind on the ride south.
