After getting home from church I decided to watch the end of Stage 2 of the Giro d&#8217;Italia and Stage 5 of Volta ao Algarve before starting today&#8217;s bike ride. This meant not beginning until 2:38 PM so I changed the route I thought of riding and rode on &#8220;Kingwood Streets&#8221;. I biked more than those 4 miles covering <strong>22.12 miles<\/strong>. The week totaled <strong>219.93 miles<\/strong>, the 9th week this year of 200+ miles. Year to date I am at <strong>3,254 miles<\/strong>. I still trail 2020 by 85 miles. I finished the bike ride at 4:23 PM.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For a change I didn&#8217;t get lost riding through Royal Brook though I did ride past where I was supposed to turn onto Royal Brook Manor. But I realized my error and backtracked to the turn.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The odometer for my Lynskey R300 turned to 4,016 miles.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A summary of this week&#8217;s bike rides. I rode 6 days out of 7 due to rain on Tuesday. The average ride was 36.65 miles long. I drove to Coldspring for the longest ride of the week.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/5-9-2021-SportTracks-Bike-Rides-Summary-Week-Ending-5-9-2021.jpg?ssl=1\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"583\" data-attachment-id=\"56483\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/5-9-2021-sporttracks-bike-rides-summary-week-ending-5-9-2021\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/5-9-2021-SportTracks-Bike-Rides-Summary-Week-Ending-5-9-2021.jpg?fit=1853%2C901&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"1853,901\" 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=\"5-9-2021 SportTracks Bike Rides Summary Week Ending 5-9-2021\" data-image-description=\"&lt;p&gt;5-9-2021 SportTracks Bike Rides Summary Week Ending 5-9-2021&lt;\/p&gt;\n\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/5-9-2021-SportTracks-Bike-Rides-Summary-Week-Ending-5-9-2021.jpg?fit=600%2C292&amp;ssl=1\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/5-9-2021-SportTracks-Bike-Rides-Summary-Week-Ending-5-9-2021.jpg?fit=800%2C389&amp;ssl=1\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/5-9-2021-SportTracks-Bike-Rides-Summary-Week-Ending-5-9-2021.jpg?resize=1200%2C583&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"5-9-2021 SportTracks Bike Rides Summary Week Ending 5-9-2021\" class=\"wp-image-56483\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/5-9-2021-SportTracks-Bike-Rides-Summary-Week-Ending-5-9-2021.jpg?w=1853&amp;ssl=1 1853w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/5-9-2021-SportTracks-Bike-Rides-Summary-Week-Ending-5-9-2021.jpg?resize=600%2C292&amp;ssl=1 600w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/5-9-2021-SportTracks-Bike-Rides-Summary-Week-Ending-5-9-2021.jpg?resize=800%2C389&amp;ssl=1 800w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/5-9-2021-SportTracks-Bike-Rides-Summary-Week-Ending-5-9-2021.jpg?resize=640%2C311&amp;ssl=1 640w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/5-9-2021-SportTracks-Bike-Rides-Summary-Week-Ending-5-9-2021.jpg?resize=1536%2C747&amp;ssl=1 1536w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Wind made pedaling hard today even among all of the trees.
