Today&#8217;s route was different from the earlier one in that I rode north on FM 2100 from Stroker Road rather than riding back from FM 2100 on the roads that got me there.

I put extra ice in the CamelBak and a granola bar in the pouch. I didn&#8217;t stop to eat the granola bar though. Weather conditions: start 86 (79% humidity, 78.5 dew point), a few clouds, wind calm; finish 92 (50% humidity, 70.9 dew point), partly cloudy, wind calm. My arm sleeves and shorts showed streaks of salt from the sweat. The lower humidity (for SE Texas anyway) helped it feel slightly cooler whenever I rode through shade. Calm wind made for limited headwinds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Watch the video to hear about my rear tire episode last night.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-style-default\"><a
