For a change the humidity and dew point were way lower than the other days this week. The ride began at 1:30 PM on my Lynskey Helix bike. I chose the <strong>Forest Cove &#8211; Oakhurst &#8211; Kingwood<\/strong> route but tweaked it a little in Auburn Trails part of Oakhurst and added a trip to Brooklyn Trails on the way to Woodridge Forest to boost the mileage a little. The last time I rode this route was also on the Lynskey <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/sporttracks.mobi\/activity\/31438506\">October 15th, 2023<\/a><\/strong>. I finished at 3:33 PM riding 25.5 miles closing out the week with 223.51 miles for the 5th week in a row of 200+ miles. For September now totals 235 miles, 27% of the way to my goal of 866 miles. I&#8217;m ahead of the pace but need to keep adding to the buffer. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Weather: Start 84 degrees, humidity 53%, dew point 64.6, a few clouds, wind NE 14 mph; Finish 86 degrees, humidity 51%, dew point 65.4, a few clouds, wind N 10 mph.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><a
