It is supposed to over 100 degrees again today but maybe tomorrow will bring a lower temperature. Today&#8217;s ride was a little late starting at 9:55 AM. I should started an hour earlier but some chores got in the way. Once I was on the road I did see one other biker at the 14.7 mile mark. Clear skies and a light 5 mph south breeze accompanied the rising temperature. It was 87 when I started and 97 when I finished. Sweat rolls off of every part of my body. Humidity remains low for our area at 42% when I finished.<\/p>\n<p>At first I was not riding for an average speed of 15 or more but as I got into th ride I decided to pick up the speed and ended with an average speed of 15.1 mph (SportTracks version) or 15.2 mph (Garmin Connect version). The route was a little longer at <strong>28.15 miles<\/strong> from yesterday. My max speed was 22.5 mph and the average cadence was 80.3 RPM, the same as yesterday. August miles are now<strong> 618.15<\/strong> and year to date miles are <strong>4056.80<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_9590\" style=\"width: 951px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img
