After two back to back rides over 41 miles I dialed it back with a shorter bike ride on the “New Caney – Roman Forest Blvd – Oakhurst” route of 33.25 miles. The bike ride began at 11:04 AM, a somewhat earlier start time. This route covers roads I ride frequently but not in this combination. Checking my riding history I found these rides on the same route.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

An overcast sky held the temperature back to 75 degrees but the wind did not hold back blowing from the SE at 13 mph shifting to the south by the 1:39 PM ride finish and adding 1 mph. At times biking back to the south from Roman Forest Blvd into that headwind required committed pedaling. Overall weather during the bike ride: 75 (92% humidity, 72.5 dew point), overcast, wind SE 13 mph. Finish 79 (89% humidity, 75.1 dew point), overcast, wind S 14 mph. Sporadically a light mist fell raising my concern about getting home without getting soaked but I made it. As I rode through Oakhurst the overcast sky brightened a little letting the sun break through for a few seconds. From there to the finish the mist disappeared. Because of the lack of sun I wore shorts, long sleeve jersey, and a short sleeve Ohio State jersey thinking it might be chilly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
