High volume

Great week.  One hundred fifty six miles logged on the bike since last Sunday.  Little by little the rear is getting use to being uncomfortable.  My neck and shoulders have come a long way and staying aero for that long is getting easier.  I am happy.

Today's ride started with a flat in my rear tire.  It took awhile to change the flat because of issues with the CO2 cartridge but we were successful with getting back on and continuing the ride.  Today's goal was 50 miles and I am happy that we met the goal.

I think I underestimated the temperature and humidity.  Summer is here.  The temperature is well above 90 degrees.  I ran out of water with 10 miles to go.  Yesterday I had a rough day because I didn't use recovery and felt as though I was going to faint.  I was worried that would happen today while riding but it seemed to be alright.  I was happy once the garmin beeped at 50 miles.

Don had a flat rear tire today too.  Weird.

We saw a 6 foot alligator.  He was hiding in the ditch.  Cool thing.
