I took yesterday off to allow my legs to recover from Saturday’s 61 mile long bike ride around Magnolia. Today I biked around Huffman on the “May Park Community Center – Huffman” route for a total of 40.47 miles. This was the first ride on this route in 2016. My last two rides total 102 miles. That’s a great addition to my March mileage goal. I am now up to 321 miles leaving 310 miles to go.<\/p>\n

Weather was fantastic and I probably overdressed for a change. It was in the 80’s when I left home at 12:02 and 91 when I got back at 3:27. The sky was about as clear blue as it can get and the SW wind was around 8 mph at the airport. I wore a long sleeve jersey under my new Primal Wear Black\/white\/red Warrior short sleeve jersey. I should’ve left the long sleeve jersey at home. The only time I might have missed it was when I was on the way home biking over Lake Houston on FM1960.<\/p>\n

When I rode past Bear Branch Elementary school it dawned on me that it is spring vacation. This meant I didn’t have to worry about school traffic. Later on the way to the May Community Center I rode past Hargrave High School east of Huffman. They are on spring break too; a different school district from Kingwood.<\/p>\n

Arriving at the Huffman Chevron I took a break to get ready for the 11+ miles to home. I had stopped at Dollar General on FM2100 tto buy a couple bags of chips to go with my trailmix bar and granola bar. Sitting under the pump canopy the breeze was just right to cool me off. I was there about 38 minutes. The weather screenshots and Garmin 520 just after I arrived at the Chevron station. (I need to figure out how to take a picture of my Edge 520 without all the glare.)

The ride home from the Chevron station was into the wind until I turned right on Atascocita Shores Drive. To add some mileage to the ride I went on some different streets than I usually do when I return from Huffman. It was easier getting across Kingwood Drive without the school traffic.<\/p>\n
