For Christmas Santa got me a new Fitbit. However I decided I didn&#8217;t want to bring on ride, needs charging often and as I said, nothing is new after a tour. So I brought my old Polar watch which is missing a button for setting time and left the chest strap home even though I was curious on the calories burned each day.<br \/>\nLive in Eastern Time zone to start &#8211; Fly to West Coast, now off by 3 hours, then daylight savings time, off by 2 hours, then to AZ which doesn&#8217;t recognize daylight savings time, off by 3 hours again, then into Pacific Time Zone again, off by 2 hours, into Moutain Time Zone, off by an hour. Today we crossed into Central Time Zone so watch is now right. Until I get into Eastern Time Zone and then the watch will be off an hour until the fall when Starndard Time starts again&#8230; Thank goodness for my iPhone!<br \/>\nYesterday I was beginning to think I had gone overboard on my soapbox.

The house built by Jim&#8217;s grandfather had recently been a B&amp;B and was huge with 5 bedrooms, 6 baths and 11&#8242; ceilings. Wild asparagas and white iris grow wild in their yard. They took us to the local rodeo hall and we had chicken fried steak. We lucked out again for our rest day was rainy and in the 50&#8217;s &#8211; cold. Not a good day to be riding.<br \/>\nSo after a 2 our drive down from Hamilton I picked up where I left off on Texas Road 1323. Notice Texas has so many roads the smaller ones have 4 digit highway numbers! With clear blue skies after a cold front came through, it was another beautiful day. With a westerly headwind and hill climbing ending up with a 500&#8242; net elevation gain it was a pull for a short ride, but I wouldn&#8217;t have &#8230;<\/p>\n<hr align=\"left\" width=\"95%\" \/>\n<h2><a href=\"http:\/\/bike4heck.com\/2016\/04\/02\/april-1st-day-1-of-30-days-of-cycling\/\">April 1st: Day 1 of 30 Days of Cycling<\/a><\/h2>\n<h3>by Matthew bike4heck.com<\/h3>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/bike4heck.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/Day-1s-1-1024x768.jpg?resize=639%2C479\" alt=\"\" width=\"639\" height=\"479\" \/><br \/>\nToday was the first day of the 30 Days of Biking Challenge http:\/\/30daysofbiking.com\/ it was unseasonably cool and windy for San Antonio today but I did get on the bike with my son and we rode about a mile and a half to a Starbucks.
