The route was <strong>29.07 miles<\/strong> long as I rode &#8220;Atascocita &#8211; Walden &#8211; E. Lake Houston Parkway&#8221;. Starting at 10:10 AM I finished at 12:32 PM.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With those miles the week totals <strong>184.74 miles<\/strong>, within reach of 200+ with a Saturday ride. July stands at <strong>398.4 miles<\/strong>, almost halfway to the 800 mile goal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>From the storm to the east the wind picked up and made biking to the east hard. Weather during the bike ride: start 89 (71% humidity, 78.2 dew point), mostly cloudy, wind NE 13 mph 23 mph gusts. Finish 94 (61% humidity, 78.4 dew point), mostly cloudy, wind NE 8 mph 21 mph gusts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Day two with the Koobi saddle went well. My butt is recovering from the Fizik saddle with the much gentler sitting on the Koobi.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As it stands the stormy weather will be well east of Houston so a Saturday bike ride is in the plans.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-jetpack-markdown\"><h2>Strava Bike Ride Summary<\/h2>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><a
