Switching to a different piece of clothing is always a gamble but as the ride progressed these shorts are my new buddy. I will buy some to replace the Bellwether ones.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Second new item was a GoPro Hero7 White. I mounted it on the handlebar to the right of the stem and aimed it to the center. Last night I read up on how to use it but slept and forgot several things like voice commands. I tried to use them but I left a couple of word out and nothing happened. So I resorted to pushing the record button. Since this new I missed a few video opportunities when other cyclists popped up and I forgot to press record. Several videos from the ride.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed-youtube wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-embed-aspect-4-3 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"8\/3\/2019 Bike Ride to Huffman TX\" width=\"1200\" height=\"900\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/bJho0ZkLG5U?start=6&#038;feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed-youtube wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Biking east over Lake Houston 8\/3\/19\" width=\"1200\" height=\"675\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/8dP1ipRUwAc?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed-youtube wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Old Atascocita Road Cyclists 8\/3\/2019\" width=\"1200\" height=\"675\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/xjJiGvPzJw8?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed-youtube wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Cyclists stopped on Old Atascocita Road 8\/3\/2019\" width=\"1200\" height=\"675\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/eFJCowka6Xs?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed-youtube wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Several Groups of Cyclists East of FM2100 8\/3\/2019\" width=\"1200\" height=\"675\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/3H0Bi5HR1-E?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>I need to work on my video editing skills to combine these.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The rain never materialized as I rode back to Kingwood and finished the ride at 10:53 AM<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The week biking totaled <strong>216.64 miles<\/strong> with today&#8217;s <strong>33.57 mile<\/strong>s and August stands at <strong>108.18 mile<\/strong>s, 14% of my 800 mile goal.
