Last Big Week Of 2025?

Warm, but windy!

Our remarkable run of good weather continued today with more sunshine and another afternoon high in the 80s. I knocked out 30 easy miles today to surpass 200 miles for the third week out of the last four. On Thursday, I reached 3,000 miles for the 21st consecutive season. Going into the new week, I’m only 70 miles away from my goal for the year: 3,161.

I won’t stop on 3,161 miles, but I will allow myself the occasional break. Including today, I have ridden on 11 consecutive days and on 27 out of the last 28. I wasn’t about to waste days that were 10-20° above normal for this time of year. In the week to come, temperatures will drop into the normal range and my rides will get shorter. I may hit my mileage goal on another slow roll around town that is noteworthy for no other reason. And after I hit my goal? Only the warmest days will remain in play.
