It was 95 at the start and 91 at the finish. Humidity continues to run below 50% which is very\u00c2\u00a0unusual\u00c2\u00a0for us. With this being a rest day for the Tour de France I was not rushing to get home and start the DVR so I was able to go for the maximum distance the daylight allowed. The sunset is coming down so I have to adjust my route to around 25 miles so today&#8217;s <strong>24.88 miles<\/strong> was pretty close to that amount. My average speed of 14.7 mph was a little slower than I expected but given the 14 mph southeast wind I am not totally surprised. My maximum speed was 22.7 mph and average cadence was 78.6 RPM which partially explains the lower average speed.<\/p>\n<p>July miles are now at <strong>235.63<\/strong> and year to date miles are <strong>3074.71<\/strong>. Tomorrow will probably be a rest day from riding but I will be watching the Tour.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_9065\" style=\"width: 997px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\"
