It was a little chilly when\u00c2\u00a0 started today&#8217;s bike ride (1:15 pm) with 70 degrees. I delayed riding hoping to not need to wear a wind breaker jacket. I got my wish and before leaving I switched to a short sleeve jersey over a long sleeve thermal one. It was a good choice and I was comfortable bicycling the <strong>23.22 miles<\/strong> on the &#8220;Atascocita &#8211; Walden&#8221; route. A big change from yesterday&#8217;s sauna like weather. Today&#8217;s wind moved to the WNW at 14 mph with 26 mph gusts. I could feel the chill when one of those gusts hit me.<\/p>\n<p>With April cycling over I ended up biking <strong>804.54 miles<\/strong>, exceeding my <strong>772 mile<\/strong> goal. Last month I rode 677 miles so April weather was kinder to me. I rode 23 days for an average of 34.98 miles per ride. I will not get that many miles in May with some activities we will be doing.<\/p>\n<p>Two other bicyclists crossed my path during the ride. I guess they didn&#8217;t do the BP MS150 to Austin.<\/p>\n<h3>Links to <a href=\"https:\/\/ridewithgps.com\/trips\/14279400\">RideWithGPS.com<\/a> and <a
