Even though the wind was relatively mild my legs were still needing to recover from yesterday&#8217;s fast ride. Perfect weather made today&#8217;s ride great with temperatures in the mid 70&#8217;s and clear blue sky. No dog sprint today which is a relief because a turtle could have matched me today. I decided to wear a long sleeve jersey because the wind was a little cool in the shade and to protect me from sunburn.<\/p>\n<p>No other riders out today as far as I could tell.<\/p>\n<p>Today will be a great recovery day with about 5 hours of bike racing on TV with the Giro d&#8217;Italia and the Tour of California. It will be a stretch this week with both races on TV.<\/p>\n<p>I made my goal for the week at <strong>127.17 <\/strong>miles. This was without riding one day due to the rain. May miles are <strong>312.15<\/strong> and year to date is <strong>1814.82<\/strong>. The average speed today was 14.5 mph which is not surprising. Average cadence was 78.1 rpm. Maximum speed was 21.8 mph.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_8324\" style=\"width: 992px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\"
