When I got up this morning my home weather station showed 44 degrees, way below my tolerance level. So I waited for the sun to come up and warm up the day. At 11:56 am I rolled out on the bike ride. Weather during the bike ride: start 65 (57% humidity), fair, wind 4 mph. Finish 69 (44% humidity), a few clouds, wind W 8 mph. The clear blue sky beckoned and I followed on the &#8220;Atascocita &#8211; Walden &#8211; Huffman&#8221; route for a distance of <strong>31.31 miles<\/strong>. I dressed to offset the coolness with shorts, leg warmers, thermal long sleeve jersey, wind breaker jacket, and full finger gloves. This kept me warm but the wind still had a bite to it.<\/p>\n<p>With the cooler weather this month and daylight savings time ending Sunday biking will be more of a challenge. Thankfully my mileage goal for November is lower at 360 miles.<\/p>\n<p>No rest stop during the ride and no other cyclists crossed my route. I finished the ride at 2:20 pm.<\/p>\n<p>Saturday&#8217;s weather will be slightly warmer. I plan on riding.<\/p>\n<h2>SportTracks Bike Ride Summary<\/h2>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/sporttracks.mobi\/activity\/19154461\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"45768\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/2018\/11\/02\/not-this-cool-since-april-bike-ride\/11-2-2018-sporttracks-bike-ride-summary\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/11-2-2018-SportTracks-Bike-Ride-Summary.jpg?fit=1919%2C1024&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"1919,1024\" 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;1541170247&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=\"11-2-2018 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\/11\/11-2-2018-SportTracks-Bike-Ride-Summary.jpg?fit=600%2C320&amp;ssl=1\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/11-2-2018-SportTracks-Bike-Ride-Summary.jpg?fit=800%2C427&amp;ssl=1\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-45768 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/11-2-2018-SportTracks-Bike-Ride-Summary.jpg?resize=1200%2C640&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"SportTracks Bike Ride Summary\" width=\"1200\" height=\"640\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/11-2-2018-SportTracks-Bike-Ride-Summary.jpg?w=1919&amp;ssl=1 1919w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/11-2-2018-SportTracks-Bike-Ride-Summary.jpg?resize=640%2C342&amp;ssl=1 640w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/11-2-2018-SportTracks-Bike-Ride-Summary.jpg?resize=600%2C320&amp;ssl=1 600w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/11-2-2018-SportTracks-Bike-Ride-Summary.jpg?resize=800%2C427&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\/1941825359\/embed\/cf751a3343b496ecda5bf81d641fc79408ea24a3\" width=\"590\" height=\"405\" frameborder=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>First bike ride in November was cooler than I prefer.
