Today’s bike ride followed the “Atascocita – Huffman – Walden” route for a total of 33.16 miles<\/strong>. This made the total for the week 220.19 miles<\/strong>, the second week in a row of 200+ miles. May now totals 694.83 miles<\/strong>, 34.83 miles<\/strong> above my goal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Starting at 11:00 AM after watching stage 14 of the Giro d’Italia I rode flat lands while they rode the mountains. Weather during my bike ride: start 89 (61% humidity), mostly cloudy, wind SE 16 mph. Finish 88 (63% humidity), partly cloudy, wind S 14 mph 25 mph gusts. Attire: shorts, short sleeve jersey, and arm sleeves.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

At the beginning of the ride the wind wasn’t so bad but as the ride progressed the wind increased. The headwind slowed me down until the turn to the north on FM 2100 from Old Atascocita Road. From there the tailwind helped me on the return to Kingwood and my average speed slowly increased to 13.5 mph. Not as high as I like but what my legs could manage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I saw another cyclist as I approached FM 1960 on Atascocita Shores Drive. He rode north and I to the south. We exchanged waves.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On the way back home I passed through Kingwood’s Town Center Park where there were a bunch of booths and food trucks. People mingled around.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sunday will be a rest day and the weather looks great.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
