I had another great month on the bike. I rode 17 times in 30 days, for a total of 581.7 miles. That's an average of 19.39 miles per day and 135.73 miles per week. I've now pedaled 2,053.4 miles in 2016. My plan for the year was to have my second-best mileage year ever (in 36 years of cycling), but now I think I can have my best mileage year ever. (I had my best in 1990, when I was 33 years old.) Today's ride was great fun. I listened to music the entire way on my iPhone 5c. The recent flooding of the trail in various places is no longer a problem. The temperature was 63º when I started and 71º when I arrived home. I averaged 17.24 miles per hour. That may not seem like much, but (1) I had no draft from anyone, (2) the course has many twists and turns, and (3) I'm 59 years old. My personal record on this course (34.2 miles) is 17.45 miles per hour.
