I started at 1:41 PM after getting home from church and a trip to the attic to light the water heater and finished at 3:27 PM. With today&#8217;s miles the week&#8217; bike rides came in at<strong> 224.02 miles<\/strong>. Since the week ending March 9th except for 1 week I rode 200+ miles or 8 out of the last 9 weeks. I was able to reach the 200+ miles this week with 6 bike rides. A summary of the week&#8217;s bike rides are below. I rode the Lynskey R300 bike today.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/5-10-2020-Week-Bike-Rides-Summary.jpg?ssl=1\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"574\" data-attachment-id=\"52992\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/5-10-2020-week-bike-rides-summary\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/5-10-2020-Week-Bike-Rides-Summary.jpg?fit=1913%2C915&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"1913,915\" 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=\"5-10-2020 Week Bike Rides Summary\" data-image-description=\"&lt;p&gt;5-10-2020 Week Bike Rides Summary&lt;\/p&gt;\n\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/5-10-2020-Week-Bike-Rides-Summary.jpg?fit=600%2C287&amp;ssl=1\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/5-10-2020-Week-Bike-Rides-Summary.jpg?fit=800%2C383&amp;ssl=1\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/5-10-2020-Week-Bike-Rides-Summary.jpg?resize=1200%2C574&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"5-10-2020 Week Bike Rides Summary\" class=\"wp-image-52992\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/5-10-2020-Week-Bike-Rides-Summary.jpg?w=1913&amp;ssl=1 1913w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/5-10-2020-Week-Bike-Rides-Summary.jpg?resize=600%2C287&amp;ssl=1 600w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/5-10-2020-Week-Bike-Rides-Summary.jpg?resize=800%2C383&amp;ssl=1 800w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/5-10-2020-Week-Bike-Rides-Summary.jpg?resize=640%2C306&amp;ssl=1 640w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/5-10-2020-Week-Bike-Rides-Summary.jpg?resize=1536%2C735&amp;ssl=1 1536w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For Mother&#8217;s Day the weather was picture perfect with a bright blue sky. When I got up this morning the temperature was in the mid 50&#8217;s but by ride time it warmed up so that all I needed to wear was shorts and a short sleeve jersey. Weather while I biked around Kingwood: start 78 (49% humidity, 57.2 dew point), a few clouds, wind E 8 mph. Finish 81 (45% humidity, 57.6 dew point), a few clouds, wind E 12 mph.<\/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=\"Mother&#039;s Day Memories Under A Blue Sky Bicycling Kingwood Streets\" width=\"1200\" height=\"675\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/E8xbHoocWS4?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 class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Several groups of people seemed to be celebrating Mother&#8217;s Day. In Woodridge Forest one home had a large BBQ pit trailer cooking away in the driveway. At another home a group of people sat in lawn chairs under a large tree in the front yard. On Cedar Knoll Drive a family of 6 or 7 walked along the side of the street. Driving home from church numerous restaurants&#8217; drive through lanes had cars waiting. In Town Center one restaurant seated people outside, separated safely. For me, Mother&#8217;s Day this year is different. My wife passed away in 2019 and my mother passed away in 2013 so the mother&#8217;s in my life are no longer around but their memories are.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Year to date biking surpasses all previous years at this point with 3,361 miles. The graph below compares biking miles since 2011.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><a
