Amongst the Leaves and Trees
Great start to the new year. My wife requested me to ride the trails in Kingwood to stay off the streets in case some late party people are on the road. I rode 17.68 miles on my Motobecane 700HT MTB. This is the first time on the MTB in a long time. I had to dust off the bike and air up the tires before riding. I meet a number of people on the trails. For awhile I thought it was required that you walk your dog to be on the trails but eventually I came across some joggers and people walking. Several strollers were out as well. The trees have dumped a pile of leaves on the trails so at times I had to guess where the trail went. Since I rode these trails before I had a good idea.
I hope to bike 6500 miles this year so I only have 6483 more to go.
The weather today was overcast with 63 degrees and a light 5 mph breeze. To make this comfortable I wore two long sleeve jerseys, leg warmers, shorts, windbreaker jacket and full finger gloves. This was probably more than I needed but I like to be warm. Bring on the 85+ degree days.
