I chose a shorter route because my wife is taking me out to eat after the ride. I rode the &#8220;Atascocita &#8211; Walden&#8221; route for a total of <strong>25.64 miles<\/strong>. This route stays west of Lake Houston and to get to 25 miles I added a few side streets and a loop near the end. This is the first week this year that biked every day of the week. This is good but it looks like I will still fall short of my 975 mile goal for the month. I am up to 517 miles so far and with 10 biking days left I will need to average 46 miles per ride. I don&#8217;t think that is going to happen.<\/p>\n<p>Lately when riding a southern route I ride through the Kingwood High School parking lot to avoid rough sidewalks. Today I stopped at the tennis court fence and took this picture.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone\" src=\"https:\/\/lh3.googleusercontent.com\/iyar9Wv85FCS246ExehlLGXd7m9MVNtwa1LYnSSCF-pLW6rIZiA3AnyFVJAVEOn9u3PVsg4Y2GpDOq3oZmHa-p74op_2PLEFaOeFwbqA-A4QcScMZ8nExtUzTw7v_N0nk5KP2zsG4sTnCxkuHSbpaXl5NyTVhoqkIVLG-fkQlwG7sUmJV7SYZiSc-jifXiHOVq4oBuHRRVna4ST_UZI6RUg8c6oTJZNbjBcmcMhWIW6LAQribxNbmfPFM6UFT9_X_nj2AERV7o_eaMn3yjRikM7K6DTP4TtgYL6LomN_tfEXkGFdQELW6RDOMrytBmUXkK87EWsB5fNXHGqQiUgS8bBOvtbY3cK18LqE3-DLP16bM0_Gbf5guY5ciknr7vfwStpFBj7L_V3XbAJX0QOS_daWG-s1ZpJ9IebhnY5oFHT-54DU42gHGSY0FV6lCr7ELCTXDExBnsnOuYsw6AsNkcBNkMyIvSMD238M5fRDkppgsBDmBaGwhlQupxVdKvQR0HY9Zw0jBdHjqceqlT7PGABghcZbTNzEHRnbsUGLY4G3rM055rrRW7VXEsENiV-Tg8UXU3lpnwhmxor3E5AFjHm4g9PmPVQ=w1670-h1249-no\" width=\"795\" height=\"595\" \/><\/p>\n<p>I left home at 12:14 and got back at 2:10.
