Choosing the &#8220;Atascocita &#8211; Walden &#8211; Huffman&#8221; route I biked <strong>33.63 miles<\/strong>. The weather: start 67 (41% humidity), finish 72 (36% humidity), few clouds, wind calm.<\/p>\n<p>Started the bike ride earlier today leaving at 12:38 pm and finished earlier at 3:04 pm.<\/p>\n<p>I made a decision to dress lighter today thinking the abundant sun and light wind would allow me that luxury. Riding wardrobe: shorts, long sleeve thermal jersey, short sleeve jersey and windbreaker jacket. Missing from yesterday&#8217;s ride: leg warmers and full finger gloves. The first few miles were chilly but once my body warmed up I didn&#8217;t notice the missing items.<\/p>\n<p>One other cyclist was out in Atascocita Shores. He was dressed about the same as I was.<\/p>\n<p>Numerous school age children were enjoying the spring break weather.<\/p>\n<p>Nothing out of the ordinary along the route. The Canyon Endurace CF SLX continues to impress me riding smoothly. The disc brakes stop quickly without the carbon rim squeal. I will be watching the Continental 4000 II tires to see how they hold up compared to the Continental GatorSkin tires I normally ride. The road debris can take a toll on tires.<\/p>\n<p>More great biking weather in Wednesday&#8217;s forecast but I would prefer the temperature to be in the 80&#8217;s.<\/p>\n<h2>SportTracks Bike Ride Summary<\/h2>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/sporttracks.mobi\/activity\/17213622\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"39756\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/2018\/03\/13\/a-few-clouds-bike-ride\/3-13-2018-sporttracks-bike-ride-summary\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/3-13-2018-SportTracks-Bike-Ride-Summary.jpg?fit=1953%2C1013&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"1953,1013\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;Rick Ankrum&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;1520955315&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"3-13-2018 SportTracks Bike Ride Summary\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/3-13-2018-SportTracks-Bike-Ride-Summary.jpg?fit=600%2C311&amp;ssl=1\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/3-13-2018-SportTracks-Bike-Ride-Summary.jpg?fit=800%2C415&amp;ssl=1\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-39756 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/3-13-2018-SportTracks-Bike-Ride-Summary.jpg?resize=1200%2C622\" alt=\"Texas Bike Ride Summary\" width=\"1200\" height=\"622\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/3-13-2018-SportTracks-Bike-Ride-Summary.jpg?w=1953&amp;ssl=1 1953w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/3-13-2018-SportTracks-Bike-Ride-Summary.jpg?resize=640%2C332&amp;ssl=1 640w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/3-13-2018-SportTracks-Bike-Ride-Summary.jpg?resize=600%2C311&amp;ssl=1 600w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/3-13-2018-SportTracks-Bike-Ride-Summary.jpg?resize=800%2C415&amp;ssl=1 800w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<h2><a href=\"https:\/\/www.strava.com\/activities\/1451492496\">Strava bike ride summary<\/a><\/h2>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A few degrees warmer at the start of today&#8217;s bike ride.
