Blue sky, almost warm but with a strong wind as the bike ride happened. I started the bike ride at 12:09 PM after waiting for it to warm up to almost 70. Heading north on my Lynskey R300 bike I biked my &#8220;Kingwood &#8211; FM 1485 &#8211; Kingwood&#8221; route extending it a little by going north over Caney Creek and then under US59\/I-69 to head back to Kingwood. By the 2:40 PM finish I biked <strong>32.23 miles<\/strong>. A good start for the week to get to 200+ miles. With March at <strong>816.82 miles <\/strong>the most in a month since last October&#8217;s <strong>822.29 miles <\/strong>which I can pass on tomorrow&#8217;s bike ride.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This was the 4th time biking this route in 2021, 3 times on my Canyon Endurace and 1 time on my Lynskey R300 bikes. The Drift camera setup is visible in the photo below nestled below the bike computer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Overnight the temperature dropped to the low 40&#8217;s but warmed up as the morning sun moved higher. Weather conditions for the bike ride: start 69 (31% humidity, 37.1 dew point), a few clouds, wind E 10 mph; finish 71 (30% humidity, 38.3 dew point), partly cloudy, wind S 13 mph gusts 20 mph. The wind increased during the ride making the return leg back to Kingwood harder with a headwind. An advantage of waiting to start was not wearing leg warmers. I did wear shorts, a long sleeve thermal jersey (because the chilly wind), and a windbreaker jacket. A glimpse of today&#8217;s attire and bike.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><a
