I modified a route I used 6 times before in 2021. I kept the same route name because most of the route was the same, &#8220;Forest Cove &#8211; Oakhurst &#8211; Valley Ranch&#8221;, but inserted San Jacinto Bayou Greenway before riding to Oakhurst. Then at FM 1314 I rode NW to loop by Porter High School before returning to FM 1314 and the usual roads in the route. This bike ride covered <strong>33.01 miles<\/strong> which is longer than the other times I biked the route. With those miles I&#8217;m well positioned to hit 200 miles for the week and over 1,000 miles for July with one day left. The week sits at <strong>183.18 miles <\/strong>and July at <strong>995.3 miles<\/strong>. So far I&#8217;ve missed only one day of biking.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/7-30-2021-YTD-Bike-Rides-Summary-Todays-Route.jpg?ssl=1\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"335\" data-attachment-id=\"57053\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/7-30-2021-ytd-bike-rides-summary-todays-route\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/7-30-2021-YTD-Bike-Rides-Summary-Todays-Route.jpg?fit=1857%2C518&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"1857,518\" 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=\"7-30-2021 YTD Bike Rides Summary Today&amp;#8217;s Route\" data-image-description=\"&lt;p&gt;7-30-2021 YTD Bike Rides Summary Today&amp;#8217;s Route&lt;\/p&gt;\n\" data-image-caption=\"&lt;p&gt;7-30-2021 YTD Bike Rides Summary Today&amp;#8217;s Route&lt;\/p&gt;\n\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/7-30-2021-YTD-Bike-Rides-Summary-Todays-Route.jpg?fit=600%2C167&amp;ssl=1\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/7-30-2021-YTD-Bike-Rides-Summary-Todays-Route.jpg?fit=800%2C223&amp;ssl=1\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/7-30-2021-YTD-Bike-Rides-Summary-Todays-Route.jpg?resize=1200%2C335&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"7-30-2021 YTD Bike Rides Summary Today's Route\" class=\"wp-image-57053\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/7-30-2021-YTD-Bike-Rides-Summary-Todays-Route.jpg?w=1857&amp;ssl=1 1857w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/7-30-2021-YTD-Bike-Rides-Summary-Todays-Route.jpg?resize=600%2C167&amp;ssl=1 600w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/7-30-2021-YTD-Bike-Rides-Summary-Todays-Route.jpg?resize=800%2C223&amp;ssl=1 800w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/7-30-2021-YTD-Bike-Rides-Summary-Todays-Route.jpg?resize=640%2C179&amp;ssl=1 640w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/7-30-2021-YTD-Bike-Rides-Summary-Todays-Route.jpg?resize=1536%2C428&amp;ssl=1 1536w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><\/a><figcaption>7-30-2021 YTD Bike Rides Summary Today&#8217;s Route<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>While the San Jacinto Bayou Greenway is new to me it is not for a bunch of Strava bikers.
