For the second time in the last week and a half I rode the Spring Creek Greenway. With the bridge repair to the south I decided the greenway was a good place to go for a bike ride after biking to the north this week. The ride started at 10:55 AM and would last until 2:36 PM traveling 42.75 miles<\/strong>. This time I didn’t ride all the way to I-45 but made the turnaround at Dennis Johnston Park. Below is a summary of all the times I rode the greenway.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A blue sky, 82 degrees, and light wind at the start made for good biking weather. But the wind picked up while I biked among the trees. Weather during the ride: start 82 (53% humidity, 63.2 dew point), a few clouds, wind variable 6 mph. Finish 84 (50% humidity, 63.7 dew point), a few clouds, wind S 10 mph gusts 22 mph. I felt warm enough to wear shorts and a short sleeve jersey with sunscreen. I thought the wind increased but it was hard to tell with the trees. I found out when I exited the US59 trailhead to ride back to Kingwood though. Fortunately my direction was generally to the north at that point and it became a tailwind.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Below I stopped at John Pundt Park for a short break to check text messages and a phone message.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Other cyclists passed me on the greenway and the video caught many of them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
