Today was a borderline ride day. Borderline in that I could wear a long sleeve jersey and be comfortable whenever I stopped moving or wear a short sleeve jersey and not be so comfortable until I get warmed up. I rode under an overcast sky with the temperature around 75 degrees at my home. The wind was light which helped it not to feel too cool.<\/p>\n

Riding the “Atascocita South – Walden – Huffman” route for the 8th time this year I went 33.03 miles<\/strong>. This route is a variation of the “Atascocita – Walden – Huffman” route. I change up some of the streets around FM1960 for variety.<\/p>\n

With the year winding down riding has slowed some since I am only 123 miles away from my goal of 6500 miles for the year. Plus I am working on a couple of projects at home. With a month and a half left I think I can ride 123 miles but the weather has cooperate some. So far there haven’t been any days this fall where the daytime temperature is below my 60 degree cutoff.<\/p>\n

The Garmin Connect website removed the embed link option so I am substituting RideWithGPS.com along with Strava.com.<\/p>\n

Stopping at the Huffman Chevron I sat at the edge of the pump canopy hoping the heat would filter through the overcast sky and not cool down too much. At that point I was at the 21.1 mark in the ride. I was late enough that I should miss the heavy traffic on Kingwood Drive by the time I got there from Huffman. The weather while I was at the Chevron station in Huffman.<\/p>\n

When I reached Kingwood Drive the traffic was gone on the eastbound lanes but I had to wait a couple of minutes on the westbound lanes to have an opening to cross. I got home at 3:46 (I left home at 12:54).<\/p>\n

Tomorrow the rain chance kicks up during the middle of the day so I may not be biking then.<\/p>\n
