Off to the south and east on the “Atascocita – Walden – Huffman” route for today’s bike ride. I rode 32.2 miles<\/strong> in great weather. Blue sky came back today and so did the warmer temperatures. At the 10:52 AM start it was 86 (69% humidity) warming to 91 (54% humidity) when I finished at 1:35 PM. Sweating was the order of the day but not like August. Wind was from the SE at 9 mph requiring more effort into the headwind but not strong enough to make a strong tailwind.<\/p>\n

I stopped for a rest at the Huffman Chevron 21 miles into the ride. I was going to buy some blue Powerade from the beverage dispenser but they were out so I drank ice water which was just fine. For some energy to get to the finish I ate two fruit and grain cereal bars I brought along for the ride. The love bugs were not flying around today, thank goodness. After 20 minutes I was back on the bike for the 11+ miles to finish the ride.<\/p>\n

Not much to see out of the ordinary except for the Harvey cleanup still going on in places. Some streets are almost debris free and others not.<\/p>\n

I am at 5622 miles<\/strong> YTD leaving 378 miles<\/strong> to ride by the end of September to put me at 6000. 343 miles<\/strong> for September so far. If I ride those 378 miles I will hit 721 miles for the month.<\/p>\n

More great bicycling weather tomorrow.<\/p>\n
