The sky is still brilliant blue and clouds are nowhere in sight. I set out on the &#8220;Atascocita &#8211; Walden &#8211; Huffman&#8221; route at 12:16 PM and rode <strong>32.94 miles<\/strong>, adding to my March total at <strong>653.28 miles<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I changed my attire from yesterday needing to counter the chill in the wind. Today I wore shorts, heavy long sleeve jersey and a wind breaker jacket. I really like this jacket with the three pockets on the back with elastic across the openings. I wish I could find another like this.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Weather during the bike ride: start 72 (49% humidity), a few clouds, wind NE 8 mpg. Finish 76 (40% humidity), fair, wind 6 mph. The wind wasn&#8217;t that strong but it seemed that no matter which direction I rode it was into the wind. I think my legs are still recovering from yesterday&#8217;s longer ride on the Spring Creek Greenway.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The ride was an ordinary one with nothing catching my attention. I slowly improved my average speed to 14.0 and held it there until the 30 mile point when I was back in Kingwood. I missed the school traffic and finished the ride at 2:43 PM.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Wednesday&#8217;s weather will repeat today and I plan on biking.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div
