I stopped at the Huffman Chevron for about 5 minutes while refilling my water bottle. Before that I waited for a very long train to cross FM 2100. While I was inside the store filling my water bottle a couple of the employees were saying it was too hot to ride but I said it was cooler than a couple of weeks ago when the temperature was in the upper 90&#8217;s and they agreed it was warmer then but still too hot to bike.<\/p>\n<p>The mostly cloudy sky looked like some rain could form to the south but wasn&#8217;t a problem where I was. Wednesday&#8217;s forecast looks like a repeat of today. I will need to bike early due to an afternoon appointment.<\/p>\n<h2>SportTracks Bike Ride Summary<\/h2>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/sporttracks.mobi\/activity\/18475620\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"43817\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/2018\/08\/14\/typical-august-weather-bike-ride\/8-14-2018-sporttracks-bike-ride-summary\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/8-14-2018-SportTracks-Bike-Ride-Summary.jpg?fit=1991%2C1027&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"1991,1027\" 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;1534253073&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=\"8-14-2018 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\/08\/8-14-2018-SportTracks-Bike-Ride-Summary.jpg?fit=600%2C309&amp;ssl=1\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/8-14-2018-SportTracks-Bike-Ride-Summary.jpg?fit=800%2C413&amp;ssl=1\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-43817 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/8-14-2018-SportTracks-Bike-Ride-Summary.jpg?resize=1200%2C619&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"SportTracks Bike Ride Summary\" width=\"1200\" height=\"619\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/8-14-2018-SportTracks-Bike-Ride-Summary.jpg?w=1991&amp;ssl=1 1991w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/8-14-2018-SportTracks-Bike-Ride-Summary.jpg?resize=640%2C330&amp;ssl=1 640w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/8-14-2018-SportTracks-Bike-Ride-Summary.jpg?resize=600%2C309&amp;ssl=1 600w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/8-14-2018-SportTracks-Bike-Ride-Summary.jpg?resize=800%2C413&amp;ssl=1 800w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.strava.com\/activities\/1771986969\/embed\/2bee5098d83ce5d41e30de78f479c515f5a54274\" width=\"590\" height=\"405\" frameborder=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Today&#8217;s bike ride followed my &#8220;Atascocita &#8211; Walden &#8211; Huffman&#8221; route to the south and east.
