I got it out of the box and all of the parts assembled but I&#8217;m waiting on some accessories before I can take the first bike ride. I watched some YouTube while eating breakfast and then it was off to get ready for today&#8217;s bike ride. Some obstacles appeared though. I check the battery on my GoPro before attaching it to the bike and it wouldn&#8217;t turn on. It has a new battery but for some reason it discharged after charging yesterday. I didn&#8217;t want to wait for it to charge up so I put the spare battery with the most power in and went to get dressed. I put the new battery in the charger to refill while I was gone. Back again to leave I lifted the Cervelo Caledonia bike to head for the door but a flat rear tire changed that plan. Rather than take time to fix the flat I moved to the Lynskey Helix bike. The Texbiker Team had it ready and the ride started. I rolled away at 10:30 AM. The weather was good but the forecast showed afternoon showers were possible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Biking north on my New Caney &#8211; Tavola &#8211; Valley Ranch route faced a 6 mph NW breeze but no problem. I&#8217;ve ridden this route many times averaging 36 to 37 miles. I needed those miles to close the gap on my June goal. Up through yesterday the average miles per day was 20 but the goal requires 27 miles per day. I rode 37.61 miles today upping the average miles per day to 23.55, only 3.45 miles per day below what I need. This looks good.<\/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\/2023\/06\/6-5-2023-SportTracks-12-Month-Ride-History-New-Caney-Tavola-Valley-Ranch.png?ssl=1\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"551\" data-attachment-id=\"62528\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/6-5-2023-sporttracks-12-month-ride-history-new-caney-tavola-valley-ranch\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/6-5-2023-SportTracks-12-Month-Ride-History-New-Caney-Tavola-Valley-Ranch.png?fit=1843%2C846&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"1843,846\" 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=\"6-5-2023 SportTracks 12 Month Ride History New Caney-Tavola-Valley Ranch\" data-image-description=\"&lt;p&gt;6-5-2023 SportTracks 12 Month Ride History New Caney-Tavola-Valley Ranch&lt;\/p&gt;\n\" data-image-caption=\"&lt;p&gt;6-5-2023 SportTracks 12 Month Ride History New Caney-Tavola-Valley Ranch&lt;\/p&gt;\n\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/6-5-2023-SportTracks-12-Month-Ride-History-New-Caney-Tavola-Valley-Ranch.png?fit=600%2C275&amp;ssl=1\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/6-5-2023-SportTracks-12-Month-Ride-History-New-Caney-Tavola-Valley-Ranch.png?fit=800%2C367&amp;ssl=1\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/6-5-2023-SportTracks-12-Month-Ride-History-New-Caney-Tavola-Valley-Ranch.png?resize=1200%2C551&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"6-5-2023 SportTracks 12 Month Ride History New Caney-Tavola-Valley Ranch\" class=\"wp-image-62528\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/6-5-2023-SportTracks-12-Month-Ride-History-New-Caney-Tavola-Valley-Ranch.png?w=1843&amp;ssl=1 1843w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/6-5-2023-SportTracks-12-Month-Ride-History-New-Caney-Tavola-Valley-Ranch.png?resize=600%2C275&amp;ssl=1 600w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/6-5-2023-SportTracks-12-Month-Ride-History-New-Caney-Tavola-Valley-Ranch.png?resize=800%2C367&amp;ssl=1 800w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/6-5-2023-SportTracks-12-Month-Ride-History-New-Caney-Tavola-Valley-Ranch.png?resize=640%2C294&amp;ssl=1 640w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/6-5-2023-SportTracks-12-Month-Ride-History-New-Caney-Tavola-Valley-Ranch.png?resize=1536%2C705&amp;ssl=1 1536w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><\/a><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">6-5-2023 SportTracks 12 Month Ride History New Caney-Tavola-Valley Ranch<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I added two loops in Tavola for more miles, rode through Brooklyn Trails earlier, and took the longer lead in through Elm Grove Village.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"embedly-responsive\" style=\"position: relative;padding-bottom: 78.2227%;height: 0;overflow: hidden;\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" class=\"embedly-embed\" frameborder=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\" allowfullscreen src=\"https:\/\/cdn.embedly.com\/widgets\/media.html?src=https:\/\/www.relive.cc\/view\/v36AxjxRjGO\/widget?r=embed-site&#038;url=https:\/\/www.relive.cc\/view\/v36AxjxRjGO?r=embed-site&#038;image=https:\/\/www.relive.cc\/view\/v36AxjxRjGO\/png?x-ref=embed-site&#038;key=f1631a41cb254ca5b035dc5747a5bd75&#038;type=text\/html&#038;schema=relive\" width=\"1024\" height=\"801\" style=\"position: absolute;top: 0;left: 0;width: 100%;height: 100%;\"><\/iframe><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"strava-embed-placeholder\" data-embed-type=\"activity\" data-embed-id=\"9209002746\"><\/div><script src=\"https:\/\/strava-embeds.com\/embed.js\"><\/script>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I decided to forego watching stage 2 of the Crit\u00e9rium du Dauphin\u00e9 in order to work on my new bike that arrived yesterday.
