Sun greeted me as I rolled out on the bike ride at 8:21 AM, a little later than usual for a Saturday. I chose the “Atascocita – Huffman – Walden” route as usual wondering if I would see any other cyclists due to the possible flooding in the area around Huffman.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The ride totaled 37.04 miles, boosting the week’s total to 146.33 miles. September stands at 399.91 miles, including the Zwift miles from Wednesday. I am 300 miles away from my goal for the month. If the weather cooperates I may get close.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Weather along the ride: start 76 (99% humidity, 75.3 dew point), a few clouds, wind SE 7 mph. Finish 90 (67% humidity, 77.5 dew point), mostly cloudy, wind SE 16 mph. It felt cool at the start but the high humidity got my sweat rolling not long after the start.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
On Saturday I usually see other cyclists as I go across Lake Houston and then to FM 2100. Today there were not very many. I found Old Atascocita Road closed from high water and FM 1960 going to Dayton was closed as well. I don’t ride north from Huffman very often but today FM 1485 was closed at the East Fork of the San Jacinto River a big sign said in Huffman.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Today’s video shows some of the cyclists and some passed before I could turn the GoPro on.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
