Out of the driveway at 9:49 am to begin the bike ride following the “Kingwood – SH 242 – Kingwood” route. To add a couple of extra miles I looped through Tavola north of New Caney and then rode in the shade along the railroad tracks to Woodbranch Village and then back to the service road. It wasn’t full heat yet and as long as I was moving I didn’t really notice how hot it was. With the route modification I biked 37.38 miles<\/strong> bumping the week to 170.56 miles<\/strong> and July to 603.15 miles<\/strong>. The reason I wanted some extra miles on today’s ride was to position Saturday’s bike ride only needing 30 miles to hit 200+ for the week, mission accomplished on that. I need 197 miles to reach my 800 mile goal for July. YTD I am at 4,625 miles<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Weather during the bike ride: Weather: start 86 (73% humidity), mostly cloudy, wind SW 12 mph. Finish 94 (48% humidity), a few clouds, wind W 7 mph.<\/p>\n\n\t\t
