When I was backing out of the driveway at 10 till 8 this morning the streets were wet and it had rained some about an hour and a half before. I was doubtful of biking today. As I was driving to Humble the sun came out and I was thinking maybe by the time I get home the streets will be dry enough to ride. Thanks to the sun and a 9 mph SW wind the streets were dry when I got home. Riding was going to happen today.<\/p>\n

Mu last ride was last Wednesday on the Kingwood Trails. While that was enjoyable I wanted to get on the road. My number 1 route is “Atascocita – Walden – Huffman” and that is where I went. I thought it might be a little chilly with the wind and wore a long sleeve jersey, one of my heavier ones. The wind was not that chilly but I was glad I made the choice. Heading back from Huffman I was going into the wind over Lake Houston where the wind picked coolness from the water. The jersey was welcomed there while the wind was not. With not much riding in my legs have lost some power and riding into the wind took a toll. The top muscles of my thighs were hurting. I didn’t know that the wind had increase to 12 mph with 18 mph gusts.<\/p>\n

Here are two pictures of the blue sky taken at the Huffman Chevron.<\/p>\n

I had a problem with my Garmin 510. It stems from having two activity profiles and not remembering which one I should use. On the Wednesday ride I rode my MTB and switched the bike profile and the activity profile. In the past I had this Problem and I deleted an activity profile thinking this keep me from choosing the wrong one. It didn’t work. On profile is named “Road” (correct one) and the other is “Ride” (wrong one). The Road profile has the screens setup the way I want them and Ride does not. For some reason I selected Ride before hitting the start button. Not too long after starting the ride I saw the screen wasn’t what it should be. I tried to change it but the 510 will not let me change the activity profile unless I stop the ride. When I did that it uploaded the ride data up to that point. Changing to the Road profile and hitting start created a new ride. Thankfully the two programs I use allows me to merge ride data and that fixed it.<\/p>\n

Other than the wind being in my face when I left Huffman to finish the ride weather was great. 76 degrees is much better than the temperatures of earlier this week.<\/p>\n

I did see two other bikers: one at Atascocita Shores Drive and FM1960 and the other riding north on W. Lake Houston Parkway over the San Jacinto River.<\/p>\n

The route today was 31.97 miles<\/strong> long but I am not sure what my average speed was because merging the two data files. November miles are now 141.99<\/strong> and year to date I am at 6313 miles<\/strong>, 187<\/strong> from my 6500 mile<\/strong> goal.<\/p>\n
