The first start came at 9:01 AM and last a couple of minutes until I tried to turn on the GoPro camera to find the battery was dead. A quick turn around back home to replace the battery and start number 2 with no problem this time. On Saturday&#8217;s I try to start early enough to catch some cyclists on the east side of Lake Houston as they ride back to Atascocita or other points. With the COVID-19 safe distance in effect I wasn&#8217;t sure if any of them would be out biking. Not to worry, while the number wasn&#8217;t as many as some Saturdays other bikers passed by.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed-youtube aligncenter 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=\"Check The Battery Before The Next Bike Ride\" width=\"1200\" height=\"675\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/hopee8iSIr8?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>To get to the east side of Lake Houston and not miss them I chose the &#8220;Atascocita &#8211; Huffman &#8211; Walden&#8221; route which goes to Huffman before Walden.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Today&#8217;s ride went <strong>32.22 miles<\/strong> bringing the week&#8217;s total to <strong>200.76 miles<\/strong>, the third week in a row at 200+ miles. I plan on biking tomorrow to increase the week&#8217;s total and not just squeak over the 200 mile mark. March now totals <strong>780.26 miles<\/strong> and year to date stands at 1533 road miles and 505 Zwift miles. This is the most miles I ever biked this early in a year by 522 miles. 2017 was the best year prior to 2020 at this point in time. I surpassed October 2019 miles, the highest month since July 2019.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Many people along the route walking and jogging. Families and individuals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Weather during the bike ride:  start 74 (90% humidity, 71.2 dew point), mostly cloudy, wind S 4 mph.  Finish 81 (74% humidity, 71.9 dew point), overcast, wind S 10 mph. Because the of the lower temperature at the start I added a long sleeve jersey under a short sleeve jersey. This kept me comfortable with the wind chill effect. The upper 80&#8217;s spoiled me the last few days.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<center><iframe height='405' width='590' frameborder='0' allowtransparency='true' scrolling='no' src='https:\/\/www.strava.com\/activities\/3228157663\/embed\/3e66f9040532fbc4da3f1a3f6efd42337cb31290'><\/iframe><\/center>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><a href=\"https:\/\/sporttracks.mobi\/activity\/24370537\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"643\" data-attachment-id=\"52608\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/3-28-2020-sporttracks-bike-ride-summary\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/3-28-2020-SportTracks-Bike-Ride-Summary.jpg?fit=1917%2C1027&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"1917,1027\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"3-28-2020 SportTracks Bike Ride Summary\" data-image-description=\"&lt;p&gt;3-28-2020 SportTracks Bike Ride Summary&lt;\/p&gt;\n\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/3-28-2020-SportTracks-Bike-Ride-Summary.jpg?fit=600%2C321&amp;ssl=1\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/3-28-2020-SportTracks-Bike-Ride-Summary.jpg?fit=800%2C429&amp;ssl=1\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/3-28-2020-SportTracks-Bike-Ride-Summary.jpg?resize=1200%2C643&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"3-28-2020 SportTracks Bike Ride Summary\" class=\"wp-image-52608\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/3-28-2020-SportTracks-Bike-Ride-Summary.jpg?w=1917&amp;ssl=1 1917w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/3-28-2020-SportTracks-Bike-Ride-Summary.jpg?resize=600%2C321&amp;ssl=1 600w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/3-28-2020-SportTracks-Bike-Ride-Summary.jpg?resize=800%2C429&amp;ssl=1 800w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/3-28-2020-SportTracks-Bike-Ride-Summary.jpg?resize=640%2C343&amp;ssl=1 640w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/3-28-2020-SportTracks-Bike-Ride-Summary.jpg?resize=1536%2C823&amp;ssl=1 1536w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"embedly-responsive\" style=\"position: relative;padding-bottom: 78.2227%;height: 0;overflow: hidden;\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" class=\"embedly-embed\" frameborder=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\" allowfullscreen src=\"https:\/\/cdn.embedly.com\/widgets\/media.html?src=https:\/\/www.relive.cc\/view\/vMv85K74ENO\/widget?r=embed-site&#038;url=https:\/\/www.relive.cc\/view\/vMv85K74ENO?r=embed-site&#038;image=https:\/\/www.relive.cc\/view\/vMv85K74ENO\/png?x-ref=embed-site&#038;key=f1631a41cb254ca5b035dc5747a5bd75&#038;type=text\/html&#038;schema=relive\" width=\"1024\" height=\"801\" style=\"position: absolute;top: 0;left: 0;width: 100%;height: 100%;\"><\/iframe><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Today&#8217;s bike ride was so awesome I started twice.
