Riding southeast on FM1314 after turning off Gene Campbell Road the headwind slowed me down some but not so much to lower my average speed too much. At one time I thought my average speed would be 16 mph or more but it ended up at 15.5 mph. My max speed was a strong 24.7 mph and average cadence of 79.0 RPM was a 1 RPM improvement from yesterday.This table shows I need to get the zone 3 speed up if I am going to hit the 16 mph average speed.<\/p>\n

Riding time was 2:05:28, around my normal length, with 39:34 time stopped. Most of the time stopped was at the Exxon station at US59 and FM1314 in Porter. I picked up a Greensheet newspaper to read the for sale ads while I drank my Diet Pepsi. Nothing caught my eye to buy but I did see someone selling a donkey and jenny for $60; just what I need for my backyard.<\/p>\n
