I rolled out on the bike ride at 10:51 AM heading north on my &#8220;New Caney &#8211; Roman Forest Blvd &#8211; Oakhurst&#8221; route. I needed to ride at least 21 miles to reach my 660 mile goal for May. I accomplished that biking <strong>33.7 miles<\/strong> and May now totals <strong>673.69 miles<\/strong>. The last 10 days or so has been challenging getting to that goal with all of the rain. 2021 YTD miles trails 2020 by 159, about the same as yesterday.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Today&#8217;s bike ride weather conditions: start 81 (78% humidity, 73.4 dew point), mostly cloudy, wind S 7 mph; finish 84 (73% humidity, 74.4 dew point), mostly cloudy, wind S 7 mph. The humidity and dew point make for a sticky ride. Sometimes it felt like swimming.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I altered the starting 4 to 5 miles of the ride and reminded myself why I don&#8217;t ride that direction. I waited for the traffic light at Hidden Pines Drive and Northpark Drive several cycles for a green light and finally when the traffic was gone I rode across Northpark. The sensors cannot detect a bike, especially a carbon fiber one. I rode my Canyon Endurace CF SLX bike today.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The bike ride ended at 1:40 PM with mixed sky. To the south dark clouds hung while to the north some blue sky showed through.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<iframe height='405' width='590' frameborder='0' allowtransparency='true' scrolling='no' src='https:\/\/www.strava.com\/activities\/5362740856\/embed\/23ea8a063f27509950a32670ddc80f976bcfad47'><\/iframe>\n\n\n\n<iframe src=\"https:\/\/ridewithgps.com\/embeds?type=trip&#038;id=67972235&#038;sampleGraph=true\" style=\"width: 1px; min-width: 80%; height: 1100px; border: none;\" scrolling=\"no\"><\/iframe>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><a href=\"https:\/\/sporttracks.mobi\/activity\/28214903\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"688\" data-attachment-id=\"56574\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/5-26-2021-sporttracks-bike-ride-summary\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/5-26-2021-SportTracks-Bike-Ride-Summary.jpg?fit=1841%2C1055&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"1841,1055\" 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=\"5-26-2021 SportTracks Bike Ride Summary\" data-image-description=\"&lt;p&gt;5-26-2021 SportTracks Bike Ride Summary&lt;\/p&gt;\n\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/5-26-2021-SportTracks-Bike-Ride-Summary.jpg?fit=600%2C344&amp;ssl=1\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/5-26-2021-SportTracks-Bike-Ride-Summary.jpg?fit=800%2C458&amp;ssl=1\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/5-26-2021-SportTracks-Bike-Ride-Summary.jpg?resize=1200%2C688&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"5-26-2021 SportTracks Bike Ride Summary\" class=\"wp-image-56574\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/5-26-2021-SportTracks-Bike-Ride-Summary.jpg?w=1841&amp;ssl=1 1841w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/5-26-2021-SportTracks-Bike-Ride-Summary.jpg?resize=600%2C344&amp;ssl=1 600w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/5-26-2021-SportTracks-Bike-Ride-Summary.jpg?resize=800%2C458&amp;ssl=1 800w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/5-26-2021-SportTracks-Bike-Ride-Summary.jpg?resize=640%2C367&amp;ssl=1 640w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/5-26-2021-SportTracks-Bike-Ride-Summary.jpg?resize=1536%2C880&amp;ssl=1 1536w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>No wet streets on today&#8217;s bike ride but the sky still had some dark clouds hanging around.
