Summer weather arrived for today’s bike ride. I started biking at 10:06 AM and it felt hot as I walked to the garage to get the Canyon and set out. I chose the “New Caney – Tavola – Valley Ranch” route riding to the north with tailwind. To protect my skin I wore arm sleeves even though you would think they would be hot. Actually I don’t notice them thanks to the wicking of sweat and the cooling effect. For the first time in several rides there were salt stains on them when I finished the bike ride at 12:55 PM.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With today’s 37.14 miles<\/strong> the week and month stand at 178.48 mile<\/strong>s, 22% of my 800 mile<\/strong> goal for July. Year to date I am at 4,268 miles<\/strong>. I am on track for another 200+ mile week if Saturday weather permits. The forecast looks favorable for biking.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Weather during the bike ride: start 87 (76% humidity, 78.8 dew point), mostly cloudy, wind S 10 mph. Finish 94 (59% humidity, 77.5 dew point), mostly cloudy, wind variable 5 mph.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With the tailwind to Tavola I expected the ride back to the south to be into a headwind which it was but I actually improved my overall average speed during that section. It was 14.1 mph at the 32 mile point as I entered Kings Manor and then Kingwood.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
