The humidity was high enough for my body to produce lots of sweat. Whenever I stopped a steady stream of drops hit my bike or the pavement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I reached 200+ miles for the week. That&#8217;s 4 weeks in a row. June mileage is up to 629.53, getting closer to my 800 mile goal. 2021 versus 2020 YD miles difference stands at 140 behind 2020. Hopefully not biking tomorrow won&#8217;t increase that by too much. Last June I rode 902.84 miles. I averaged 30.09 miles per day in 2020.
