I have the luxury of being off for the summer, so I typically ride 20-25 miles a day early in the morning to defeat the heat and workday traffic (those damn trucks can be [I]nasty[I]coming up behind you!). My route depends on the wind direction - I ride into it going out and with it coming home. Since it's flat as a pancake down here, I try to find overpasses that are cycle-safe (I think there's maybe two), and I vary the route to keep from getting bored. I'm trying to ride no less than 100 miles per week, and I'm gearing up to do the 65 mile Conquer the Coast ride in September, then hopefully the Outlaw Trail 100 in October.![]()
