This was one streak I didn&#8217;t mind breaking. One streak I continued was 200+ mile weeks. This is the third one in a row, not bad for this time of the year. After watching the races from Europe which ended earlier than the previous ones I got ready for the bike ride. I rolled my Canyon Endurace bike out and rode down the driveway pushing the start button on my Wahoo bolt computer at 9:54 AM. Today&#8217;s route was my usual Saturday ride where I hope to see other cyclists and today I saw more than last week when I started much later. The route: &#8220;Atascocita &#8211; Huffman &#8211; Walden&#8221; biking <strong>32.77 miles<\/strong> which put me <strong>208.11 miles<\/strong> for the week. (Summary of the week is below). This was the first time to bike this route in 2021. I may add to that with a Sunday bike ride but the weather might not let me. I&#8217;m still ahead of last year by 56 miles. Today&#8217;s bike.<\/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\/2021\/03\/3-13-2021-Bike-Ride-Todays-Bike.jpg?ssl=1\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"726\" data-attachment-id=\"56044\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/3-13-2021-bike-ride-todays-bike\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/3-13-2021-Bike-Ride-Todays-Bike.jpg?fit=1497%2C906&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"1497,906\" 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=\"3-13-2021 Bike Ride Today&amp;#8217;s Bike\" data-image-description=\"&lt;p&gt;3-13-2021 Bike Ride Today&amp;#8217;s Bike&lt;\/p&gt;\n\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/3-13-2021-Bike-Ride-Todays-Bike.jpg?fit=600%2C363&amp;ssl=1\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/3-13-2021-Bike-Ride-Todays-Bike.jpg?fit=800%2C484&amp;ssl=1\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/3-13-2021-Bike-Ride-Todays-Bike.jpg?resize=1200%2C726&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"3-13-2021 Bike Ride Today's Bike\" class=\"wp-image-56044\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/3-13-2021-Bike-Ride-Todays-Bike.jpg?w=1497&amp;ssl=1 1497w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/3-13-2021-Bike-Ride-Todays-Bike.jpg?resize=600%2C363&amp;ssl=1 600w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/3-13-2021-Bike-Ride-Todays-Bike.jpg?resize=800%2C484&amp;ssl=1 800w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/3-13-2021-Bike-Ride-Todays-Bike.jpg?resize=640%2C387&amp;ssl=1 640w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">More nice warm weather and the wind wasn&#8217;t that strong when I started but it picked up during the bike ride: Weather conditions: start 74 (80% humidity, 67.7 dew point), mostly cloudy, wind SE 7 mph; finish 79 (52% humidity, 60.3 dew point), mostly cloudy, wind SE 16 mph gusts 23 mph. I wore shorts, a long sleeve jersey, and a short sleeve jersey. Early in the ride I was a little cooler than I prefer but about 15 minutes in my body heat kicked in and I was okay from then on.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Other cyclists appeared as I rode south over the river on West Lake Houston Parkway an more followed spread out from there to FM 2100. After returning to the west side of the lake I saw a couple more before finishing the bike ride at 12:24 PM.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Getting to FM 2100 required hard pedaling into the strong headwind which built up while I rode in that direction. My legs were able to power through much better than yesterday. At the turn to the north on FM 2100 I felt the headwind change to a tailwind and pedaling was easier. Power output in zones 3 through 7 came in at 52% of the 2:22:42 moving time during the bike ride.
