I got an early start leaving home at 8:33. The humidity was a strong 97% I and suffered from it all the way to Huffman and back. In Huffman the stop at the Chevron station consisted of soaking up sweat. I was on a shorter time line today so I didn’t want to speed too long at the Chevron station. After drying off some the ride back home was a little better. At least my glasses didn’t get a streak of sweat down them like they did getting to Huffman. My gloves were so wet I wrung them out and put them in paper towels to dry them out some. Sitting on the concrete left a big wet spot. I used about 20 paper towels to try to stem the perspiration before resuming the ride.<\/p>\n

Four other riders were out braving the humidity. Two were on Fairlake Drive, one on FM1960 over Lake Houston and the last on Atascocita Shores Drive.<\/p>\n

The temperature at the beginning was 79 and 88 when I got home at 11:06. The humidity was 88% at the end. I walked from the garage to our master bathroom and hear a clap of thunder. A couple of minutes later it began raining. I got home just in the nick of time but I could get much wetter so the rain wouldn’t made much difference except for the dirt.<\/p>\n

The metrics below recap the ride. Biked 31.75 miles<\/strong>.<\/p>\n
