Looking through my sunglasses the clear blue sky had a depth that did not end. The horizon just floated beyond my sight. That was what it seemed like during today’s ride. The temperature continues to be mild at 78 degrees (32% humidity) when I started and 87 degrees (23% humidity) when I ended. It was 56 degrees at 7:15AM so fall is definitely in the making. The wind was a light 4 mph from the east but it seemed stronger when I was going into it. This is when you understand the geometric increase of wind resistance.<\/p>\n

The start was a little later than what I planned (11:58 AM) because I was working on another website I have (3mailat.com<\/strong><\/a>). I will be releasing an ebook in the next day or so at Amazon.com and I need to have that website up to date to support it.<\/p>\n

Today’s route was 29.44 miles<\/strong> long. I managed to get my average speed to 15.4 mph (SportTracks says 15.3 mph) with a max speed of 21.4 mph. The average cadence was over 80 at 80.4 RPM which is better than I thought it would be with the headwind I was in at times. I did not see any other bikers along the route. October miles are now 54.67<\/strong> after two days of biking. Year to date miles stand at 4296.01<\/strong>. the total miles for last week was 154.52<\/strong> without any rides over 30 miles and not riding on Saturday. Before I retired the miles would have been less because of the declining daylight in the evening.<\/p>\n
