It was much drier today while I rode the “New Caney – Gene Campbell Road” route for 36.18 miles<\/strong>. I encountered a few sprinkles while riding on FM 1314 but they didn’t last long. If it wasn’t for the one or two drops that landed in the helmet vents hitting my head I don’t think I would’ve really noticed the rain. The temperature was in the upper 70’s but I dressed for the lower 70’s at the beginning of the ride (11:26) with a long sleeve jersey under a short sleeve one. At times I was just right and others a little warm but on average comfortable.<\/p>\n

I am starting to notice more wildflowers blooming along the road. Some I can identify and others not. Along with the wildflowers the “love bugs” occasionally appeared as I rode mostly on FM 1314.<\/p>\n

Even though the last two days have generated many miles biking the SportTracks goal plugin shows that I am on schedule to meet both my monthly goal (772 miles) and yearly goal (6800 miles). If the rain will let up I plan on bicycling tomorrow too. The chance of rain is low but after I finished today’s bike ride a few scattered rain clouds moved through.<\/p>\n

Due to the somewhat early start and finish times I avoided the school traffic.<\/p>\n
