The Finish Line is in Sight

 

Riding 300 miles for the American Cancer Society has been one of my main goals for the month of October. I am very excited about it and after yesterday's ride, the finish line is in sight. I estimate that I will complete the 300 miles in three more rides.

Yesterday's 21.15 mile ride brought me to 246.44 miles logged for the month. That leaves me with 53.56 miles to go. 

Yesterday was a cool, overcast day. I was surprised how cool the day was with temperatures in the low 70s. I have become used to riding with temperatures in the 80s and accompanying "feels like" temperatures in the mid- to high-90s, I rode my usual route, with a couple additional loops to get over 20 miles. Today, I have another route that I will ride, just to provide a change of scenery. 

Cancer Society 300-mile Challenge Update:

I rode 21.15 miles yesterday. Thus far, I have logged a total of 246.44 miles. I expect to ride about 20 miles even with the windy overcast conditions. I have 53.56 miles remaining to reach the 300-mile goal.
