Yesterday was a scorcher in the Houston area topping out at 107 degrees at Bush Intercontinental Airport, not far from where I ride and live. Imagine my relief when I got up this morning to 76 degrees, 31 degrees lower. Driving to church in my Jeep Wrangler with the top down was quite pleasant. Fast forward to 11:31 when I rolled out of my driveway it was 90.5 degrees but with some cloud cover to hold the sun at bay. The humidity dropped very low to 28% and to 26% when I got back home. I noticed my bandana was not soaked like it has been every other ride this week and perspiration did not drip or roll down my arms as I rode. Tomorrow it should be in the high 90’s.<\/p>\n
Wrapping up June’s biking I chose a north route to Community Drive and then back home through Valley Ranch and some other subdivisions. I rode an even 27 miles<\/strong> (not often I ride a distance with no tenths of a mile). June ended up with 885.97 miles<\/strong> well over my 524 mile<\/strong> goal. For the week the miles totaled 227.55<\/strong> and year to date moved up to 3325 miles<\/strong>. Check out the June to date slide below for all of the metrics.<\/p>\n [wppa type=”slide” album=”181″][\/wppa]<\/p>\n [iframe http:\/\/connect.garmin.com:80\/activity\/embed\/335539991 470px 570px]<\/p>\n [iframe http:\/\/ridewithgps.com\/trips\/1453145\/embed 95% 700px]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Yesterday was a scorcher in the Houston area topping out at 107 degrees at Bush Intercontinental Airport, not far from where I ride and live.
