I thought maybe rain could be in the area but as I rode the clouds thinned and the dark ones went away. I left home at 10:33 with 88 degrees and 63% humidity and a light 7 mph SSW breeze. It didn&#8217;t take long for me to warm up and perspiration start flowing. The general route I had in my mind went south and then east. As I rode I decided to take some different streets in Atascocita to add to the expected distance. The ride ended up at <strong>33.27 miles<\/strong> at 15.5 mph average speed. Some of the route put me in the tree shade since the sun had not reached the high point. The shade was greatly appreciated with the coolness.<\/p>\n<p>The wind provided plenty of resistance when I biked west over Lake Houston out in the open. I thought the west bound traffic would help some but it didn&#8217;t. The wind strength seemed to increase when I rode over the places in the causeway where the water passes under. I guess this allows the wind to flow through as well.<\/p>\n<p>Nobody was biking that crossed my path.<\/p>\n<p>July miles increased to<strong> 765.92<\/strong>.
