The route for today was the &#8220;Community Drive &#8211; Valley Ranch &#8211; Gene Campbell Blvd&#8221; with a side trip into Riverwalk. The previous rides on this route didn&#8217;t go there and averaged 36 miles. Today I rode 39.75 miles which was helped narrow the gap for YTD mileage between 2022 and 2021 to 3 miles. YTD for 2022 is 4,722 miles. I trail 2020 by 118 miles. This was the 3rd bike ride on this route this year. I rode 962.19 miles in June so far. I might reach 1000 miles if the rain doesn&#8217;t stop me tomorrow. Only one other month had more miles than June, April with 1,014.93.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Two dog sprints on the ride. The first came as I rode on Riverwalk Drive back to FM 1314 at the corner of Colorado Drive. A small black dog slithered under the fence and came running and yapping at me. I moved to the center of the road and sped up and the dog stopped after about a hundred feet. That one I saw coming as two dogs raced along the fence until the black one found a spot to go under. The second dog surprised me on Briar Berry Lane at Auburn Park Drive. I have not encountered a dog at that spot before. The dog was black and white and large springing out of the grass and running beside me barking. I yelled at him and pedaled faster and he stopped chasing me after 50 feet or so.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The wind was light from the NE and east with the temperature ranging from 85 to 92 and mostly cloudy. It didn&#8217;t feel as hot as it was a few days ago. The headwind was not bad and mostly riding SE on FM 1314 back from Gene Campbell Blvd. My legs were up to the challenge. I think the slightly easier gearing on the Lynskey helped. Weather conditions: start 84 (humidity 64%, dew point 71), mostly cloudy, wind NE 5; finish 91 (humidity 49%, dew point 69), mostly cloudy, wind E 8 mph. The ride ended at 12:08 PM.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">According to the <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/axs.sram.com\/activities\/wahoo-262128671__1656511654\">AXS.SRAM.com ride report<\/a><\/strong> I used the 33&#215;13 gears for 2:15:20 (31.3 miles) out of the total moving time of 2:59:11. I only made 9 RD shifts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">My fitness trend from the Stravini Chrome extension using my Strava data for the last 6 months.<\/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\/2022\/06\/6-29-2022-Stravini-Fitness-Trend-6-months.png?ssl=1\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1686\" height=\"1063\" data-attachment-id=\"59557\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/6-29-2022-stravini-fitness-trend-6-months\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/6-29-2022-Stravini-Fitness-Trend-6-months.png?fit=1686%2C1063&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"1686,1063\" 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=\"6-29-2022 Stravini Fitness Trend 6 months\" data-image-description=\"&lt;p&gt;6-29-2022 Stravini Fitness Trend 6 months&lt;\/p&gt;\n\" data-image-caption=\"&lt;p&gt;6-29-2022 Stravini Fitness Trend 6 months&lt;\/p&gt;\n\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/6-29-2022-Stravini-Fitness-Trend-6-months.png?fit=600%2C378&amp;ssl=1\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/6-29-2022-Stravini-Fitness-Trend-6-months.png?fit=800%2C504&amp;ssl=1\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/6-29-2022-Stravini-Fitness-Trend-6-months.png?fit=1686%2C1063&amp;ssl=1\" alt=\"6-29-2022 Stravini Fitness Trend 6 months\" class=\"wp-image-59557\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/6-29-2022-Stravini-Fitness-Trend-6-months.png?w=1686&amp;ssl=1 1686w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/6-29-2022-Stravini-Fitness-Trend-6-months.png?resize=600%2C378&amp;ssl=1 600w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/6-29-2022-Stravini-Fitness-Trend-6-months.png?resize=800%2C504&amp;ssl=1 800w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/6-29-2022-Stravini-Fitness-Trend-6-months.png?resize=640%2C404&amp;ssl=1 640w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/6-29-2022-Stravini-Fitness-Trend-6-months.png?resize=1536%2C968&amp;ssl=1 1536w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><\/a><figcaption>6-29-2022 Stravini Fitness Trend 6 months<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The side trip into Riverwalk added about 3 miles to the ride compared to average distance on previous rides on this route.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<iframe src=\"https:\/\/ridewithgps.com\/embeds?type=trip&#038;id=94953679&#038;sampleGraph=true\" style=\"width: 1px;
