The chill was still not out of the air as I rode through Walden at Lake Houston and Huffman. The refused to stay out retreating behind the clouds enough for me to wish I had worn two long sleeve jerseys instead of the short sleeve long sleeve combination I chose. The temperature was 74 at my home when I left on the ride but in Huffman it was 72 according to Action Sign’s banner sign. Whenever I rode into the wind while in the shade I got chilly. This happened frequently\u00c2\u00a0because\u00c2\u00a0of the numerous clouds. The wind was strong at 3.5 mph but when you add my speed it still created windchill. When I got back home at 3 PM it was 78 degrees.<\/p>\n
Riding to Walden and Huffman was a 31.3 mile<\/strong> route and I managed a 15.0 mph average speed. My April mileage is inching up and totals 468.83 miles<\/strong> and year to date totals 1783.47 miles<\/strong>. I did not see any other bikers today. This route is a consistent road surface with the causeway over Lake Houston shoulders containing the usual litter.<\/p>\n Garmin Connect<\/strong><\/a> and RideWithGPS.com<\/strong><\/a> data links.<\/p>\n Tomorrow it is supposed to warm up some to 79 with partly cloudy skies.
