After not biking yesterday that left only two days to ride the necessary miles to make this a 200+ mile week. Before today’s bike ride the week totaled 141 miles leaving 59 miles. I started late at 12:01 PM to ride the “New Caney – Roman Forest Blvd – Oakhurst” route. The Canyon Endurace was ready get going. Biking 31.46 miles<\/strong> today set up Sunday to ride for the rest of the 28 miles needed for the 200+ mile week. I chose the northerly route today and will head south tomorrow on the Lynskey R300. Today was the third time riding this route in 2020. The other two rides traveled slightly more miles each. I stayed on the US59 frontage road today instead of taking Community Drive east to Loop 494.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Early in the morning I wasn’t sure about biking today after the rain but by 9 AM the rain stopped and the streets started drying off. I kept a wary eye on the weather radar since the forecast said afternoon was possible. With some heavy clouds as I started the bike ride I wondered if I would get wet. The clouds on the horizon looked threatening but as I got to where they looked dark they moved more to the north like a carrot on a stick. While the wind wasn’t that strong the lack of sun made it feel chilly making me glad I opted for the long sleeve jersey under a short sleeve jersey. I did feel and see a light mist in Woodridge Forest for a few seconds but I kept riding hoping it would fade away. The weather while I biked: start 75 (82% humidity, 69.5 dew point), mostly cloudy, wind SW 8 mph. Finish 76 (79% humidity, 69.1 dew point), mostly cloudy, wind SW 10 mph.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
