Having Monday off made for a better week of riding. I am still struggling with my saddle so 20 miles is my max at the moment.

Windy! Wind gusts of 22 mph! I decided to try for three smaller loops instead of wearing myself out riding in the wind then turning around. It helped but then I should have turned around when the sky got dark and the wind picked up. I cut through The Ridge as the rain started. It didn't matter, I was soaked by the time I got back to Mansfield. And Wahoo app would stop if a rain drop hit my iPhone just right. I lost a mile because of that.
21.65 miles (Apple Watch) 12.2 mph

Wind and my body was too tired to push. I did a loop one way then turned around and came back without doing a complete loop.

Tired. The frogs were happy with the 3" of rain we got yesterday. I expected lots of dead frogs in the road. Perhaps the decrease of commuter traffic saved them. I did see many trying to cross the road and had to swerve to avoid them. Two loops.
15.45 miles 12.0 mph

Hot and windy. Weather station said it Feels Like 100°! I didn't want to ride. But once I started I was OK. I did two looks then one small one to get to 20 miles. I wanted that Luna Bar. Too many gnats!
