My legs were relieved. I tried to watch a bike race before starting today&#8217;s bike ride but the connection failed. I&#8217;ll watch the end of them later as I avoid spoilers on Twitter. I got rolling at 10:51 AM, earlier than usual for this time of the year. Riding the Cervelo Caledonia I chose a northerly route, &#8220;Kingwood &#8211; FM1485 &#8211; Kingwood&#8221;. This was only the second time for this route in 2022, I would&#8217;ve thought it would be 3 or 4 times. I finished at 1:18 PM biking 33.43 miles in 2:21:39. This put my March road miles at 333.3 and ahead of the pace I need to reach my 650 mile goal with 51%. The week is doing good with 108.25 miles. If the weather behaves like the forecast says a 200 mile week is possible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It was a little chilly at the start but with the 4 mph wind it wasn&#8217;t as noticeable as yesterday with the stronger wind. My legs took a couple of miles to warm up to where I didn&#8217;t notice the chill. I wore a new performance fabric long sleeve T-shirt under a short sleeve jersey. I was comfortable and the wicking kept the moisture flowing away. It will interesting to see how the T-shirt works when the temperature is in the 80&#8217;s and no jacket. I&#8217;m thinking sunscreen properties. I like the loose sleeves over the arm sleeves snug fit. Weather conditions: start 68 (humidity 57%, dew point 52), fair, wind variable 4 mph; finish 75 (humidity 46%, dew point 52), fair, wind W 4 mph.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It&#8217;s a good thing I check the sensors before leaving. The cadence sensor wasn&#8217;t connecting to the Bolt computer. I tested the battery and it was all used up. I replaced it and the sensors connected quickly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A lot more shifting the RD on today&#8217;s bike ride according to <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/axs.sram.com\/activities\/wahoo-262128671__1647445919\">AXS.SRAM.com<\/a><\/strong>, 51 shifts. I thought about changing gears as I approached intersections where I stopped. Climbs were another shift situation. Thanks to less wind I spent more time in the 35&#215;13 gears at 1:14:14 and 48:48 in the 35&#215;15 gear. The change is quick making last minute decisions to shift easier. My 14.2 mph average speed helped by the lower wind speed was good.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>At Rock Creek Drive and Northpark Drive the brown and white dog did not appear. Watch the video for my comment on why.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.strava.com\/activities\/6834335095\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1046\" height=\"937\" data-attachment-id=\"58724\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/3-16-2022-strava-kingwood-fm1485-kingwood-ride-data-summary\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/3-16-2022-Strava-Kingwood-FM1485-Kingwood-Ride-Data-Summary.png?fit=1046%2C937&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"1046,937\" 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=\"3-16-2022 Strava Kingwood &amp;#8211; FM1485 &amp;#8211; Kingwood Ride Data Summary\" data-image-description=\"&lt;p&gt;3-16-2022 Strava Kingwood &amp;#8211; FM1485 &amp;#8211; Kingwood Ride Data Summary&lt;\/p&gt;\n\" data-image-caption=\"&lt;p&gt;3-16-2022 Strava Kingwood &amp;#8211; FM1485 &amp;#8211; Kingwood Ride Data Summary&lt;\/p&gt;\n\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/3-16-2022-Strava-Kingwood-FM1485-Kingwood-Ride-Data-Summary.png?fit=502%2C450&amp;ssl=1\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/3-16-2022-Strava-Kingwood-FM1485-Kingwood-Ride-Data-Summary.png?fit=670%2C600&amp;ssl=1\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/3-16-2022-Strava-Kingwood-FM1485-Kingwood-Ride-Data-Summary.png?resize=1046%2C937&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"3-16-2022 Strava Kingwood - FM1485 - Kingwood Ride Data Summary\" class=\"wp-image-58724\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/3-16-2022-Strava-Kingwood-FM1485-Kingwood-Ride-Data-Summary.png?w=1046&amp;ssl=1 1046w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/3-16-2022-Strava-Kingwood-FM1485-Kingwood-Ride-Data-Summary.png?resize=502%2C450&amp;ssl=1 502w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/3-16-2022-Strava-Kingwood-FM1485-Kingwood-Ride-Data-Summary.png?resize=670%2C600&amp;ssl=1 670w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/3-16-2022-Strava-Kingwood-FM1485-Kingwood-Ride-Data-Summary.png?resize=536%2C480&amp;ssl=1 536w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1046px) 100vw, 1046px\" \/><\/a><figcaption>3-16-2022 Strava Kingwood &#8211; FM1485 &#8211; Kingwood Ride Data Summary<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<iframe src=\"https:\/\/ridewithgps.com\/embeds?type=trip&#038;id=84933688&#038;sampleGraph=true\" style=\"width: 1px; min-width: 100%; height: 1100px; border: none;\" scrolling=\"no\"><\/iframe>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The March wind let up for today&#8217;s bike ride settling in at 4 mph.
