Leaving at 9:19 am I took the &#8220;Atascocita &#8211; Walden &#8211; E. Lake Houston Parkway&#8221; route and rode <strong>27.12 miles<\/strong>. It was nice seeing more blue than white in the sky with the sun coming through. Weather during the bike ride: start 85 (72% humidity), partly cloudy, wind calm. Finish 92 (58% humidity), partly cloudy, wind 4 mph.<\/p>\n<p>On this shorter route it is hard to get long segments without interruptions which drags down my average speed. No matter how fast I go on the short segments the stops and starts add up. Same problem buses have on their routes.<\/p>\n<p>No rest stops and I encountered a couple of recreational cyclists along the way. My sit bones are sore from yesterday&#8217;s ride. I think the seat pad in the shorts I wore is worn out.<\/p>\n<p>Rain probability increases the next three days. I plan on biking if possible.<\/p>\n<h2>SportTracks Bike Ride Summary<\/h2>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/sporttracks.mobi\/activity\/18703483\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"44529\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/2018\/09\/06\/short-time-window-bike-ride\/9-6-2018-sporttracks-bike-ride-summary\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/9-6-2018-SportTracks-Bike-Ride-Summary.jpg?fit=1986%2C1034&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"1986,1034\" 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;1536234759&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=\"9-6-2018 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\/09\/9-6-2018-SportTracks-Bike-Ride-Summary.jpg?fit=600%2C312&amp;ssl=1\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/9-6-2018-SportTracks-Bike-Ride-Summary.jpg?fit=800%2C417&amp;ssl=1\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-44529 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/9-6-2018-SportTracks-Bike-Ride-Summary.jpg?resize=1200%2C625&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"SportTracks Bike Ride Summary\" width=\"1200\" height=\"625\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/9-6-2018-SportTracks-Bike-Ride-Summary.jpg?w=1986&amp;ssl=1 1986w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/9-6-2018-SportTracks-Bike-Ride-Summary.jpg?resize=640%2C333&amp;ssl=1 640w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/9-6-2018-SportTracks-Bike-Ride-Summary.jpg?resize=600%2C312&amp;ssl=1 600w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/9-6-2018-SportTracks-Bike-Ride-Summary.jpg?resize=800%2C417&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\/1823523551\/embed\/c11ee90a475df6b79418d8d861f7158c7d50e983\" width=\"590\" height=\"405\" frameborder=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I had a short time window for today&#8217;s bike ride.
