Biking to SH 242 went easier with the help of a 15 mph tailwind. I chose the “Kingwood – SH 242 – Kingwood” route and rode 38.23 miles<\/strong>, pushing May to 811.62 miles<\/strong>, and the week to 116.78 miles<\/strong>. This is the second month this year of 800+ miles.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The weather during the bike ride that started at 11:16 AM: start 84 (75% humidity), overcast, wind S 15 mph. Finish 87 (62% humidity), mostly cloudy, wind SE 15 mph gusts 21 mph. The sun stayed behind the clouds most of the ride but the headwind was out in force for the ride south from SH 242. My clothing: shorts, short sleeve jersey, and arm sleeves. With the temperature approaching 90 degrees the arm sleeves are still comfortable because they breathe. Salt stains show which means wicking is happening producing some cooling effect.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
