I mixed the roads up on today’s bike ride by rearranging the streets making the route “Atascocita – Huffman – Walden” rather than the “Atascocita – Walden – Huffman” route. Bicycling 32.44 miles<\/strong> the distance was about the same but riding on the other side of the street from what I normally do makes it different. The bumps and cracks I know by memory are no longer there and I need to look for new ones. Variety helps make the bike rides new and requires my attention.<\/p>\n

Four other bikers passed along the route: one at Kingwood Drive by the old HEB, one on Fairlake Drive and the other two on Old Atascocita Road. I started too late (11:01 AM) to see more bikers from the Bike Barn Saturday ride.<\/p>\n

Only a 2 or 3 minute stop at the Huffman Chevron to refill my water bottle at 17.9 miles into the bike ride. Typically the mileage is 21+ which shows rearranging the order of the route was going to be more than 11+ miles from the Chevron station to the end like usual. Now it would be 16+ miles.<\/p>\n

Weather was pleasant but I sweat a lot. I need to start wearing wrist bands to slow the moisture moving down my arms to my gloves. *4 degrees at the start and 88 at the finish (1:35 PM). Mostly cloudy sky and a light breeze.<\/p>\n

Today is the seventh day in a row riding so I may take a rest day tomorrow. I rode 221.77 miles this week. Also the Astros are on TV at 1:30PM.<\/p>\n
