I got ready and rolled away on the Cervelo Caledonia at 11:09 AM. I wanted to start the week with a bang and chose the &#8220;New Caney &#8211; Roman Forest &#8211; Valley Ranch&#8221; route. This is a 40+ mile bike ride and today I stretched it to 42.3 miles. I rode this route one time so far this year on March 14th. That ride was about a mile shorter and the average speed was a little slower. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/4-18-2022-YTD-Bike-Rides-New-Caney-Roman-Forest-Valley-Ranch-Route.png?ssl=1\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1829\" height=\"306\" data-attachment-id=\"58998\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/2022\/04\/18\/new-bike-jersey-day-wind-is-back-out-and-back-to-roman-forest\/4-18-2022-ytd-bike-rides-new-caney-roman-forest-valley-ranch-route\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/4-18-2022-YTD-Bike-Rides-New-Caney-Roman-Forest-Valley-Ranch-Route.png?fit=1829%2C306&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"1829,306\" 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=\"4-18-2022-YTD-Bike-Rides-New-Caney-Roman-Forest-Valley-Ranch-Route\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/4-18-2022-YTD-Bike-Rides-New-Caney-Roman-Forest-Valley-Ranch-Route.png?fit=600%2C100&amp;ssl=1\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/4-18-2022-YTD-Bike-Rides-New-Caney-Roman-Forest-Valley-Ranch-Route.png?fit=800%2C134&amp;ssl=1\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/4-18-2022-YTD-Bike-Rides-New-Caney-Roman-Forest-Valley-Ranch-Route.png?fit=1829%2C306&amp;ssl=1\" alt=\"4-18-2022 YTD Bike Rides New Caney - Roman Forest - Valley Ranch route\" class=\"wp-image-58998\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/4-18-2022-YTD-Bike-Rides-New-Caney-Roman-Forest-Valley-Ranch-Route.png?w=1829&amp;ssl=1 1829w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/4-18-2022-YTD-Bike-Rides-New-Caney-Roman-Forest-Valley-Ranch-Route.png?resize=600%2C100&amp;ssl=1 600w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/4-18-2022-YTD-Bike-Rides-New-Caney-Roman-Forest-Valley-Ranch-Route.png?resize=800%2C134&amp;ssl=1 800w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/4-18-2022-YTD-Bike-Rides-New-Caney-Roman-Forest-Valley-Ranch-Route.png?resize=640%2C107&amp;ssl=1 640w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/4-18-2022-YTD-Bike-Rides-New-Caney-Roman-Forest-Valley-Ranch-Route.png?resize=1536%2C257&amp;ssl=1 1536w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Strong wind returned today which slowed the ride heading north to Roman Forest but helped me on the return to Kingwood. I dressed for some chill with shorts, long sleeve T-shirt, and the new Primal Backstitch short sleeve jersey. Until I warmed up about 15 minutes into the bike ride it felt chilly into the headwind and shade. Once I warmed up I was okay. Weather conditions: start 71 (humidity 64%, dew point 58), fair, wind N 16 mph gusts 25 mph; finish 77 (humidity 56%, dew point 60), fair, wind N 13 mph gusts 22 mph.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Rival AXS components powered the Cervelo Caledonia into the wind and tailwind. I didn&#8217;t shift the RD much today with 27 gear changes. Riding time in the 35&#215;15 gears was 1:45:32 and the 35&#215;13 trailed that with 1:03:05. The total riding time was 3:08:48. Normalized Power\u00ae 116\u00a0W, Elevation Gain 95\u00a0ft, Average Speed 14\u00a0mph, Average Heart Rate 121\u00a0bpm from the <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/axs.sram.com\/activities\/wahoo-262128671__1650298177\">AXS.SRAM.com ride report<\/a><\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The ride video is longer than normal because I forgot to turn off the GoPro twice. I&#8217;m still adjusting the GoPro Garmin mount position. The GoPro wasn&#8217;t tight enough in the adapter tilting forward after I rode over a bump.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.strava.com\/activities\/7003748542\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1043\" height=\"935\" data-attachment-id=\"58996\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/4-18-2022-strava-new-caney-roman-forest-valley-ranch-data-summary\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/4-18-2022-Strava-New-Caney-Roman-Forest-Valley-Ranch-Data-Summary.png?fit=1043%2C935&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"1043,935\" 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=\"4-18-2022 Strava New Caney &amp;#8211; Roman Forest &amp;#8211; Valley Ranch Data Summary\" data-image-description=\"&lt;p&gt;4-18-2022 Strava New Caney &amp;#8211; Roman Forest &amp;#8211; Valley Ranch Data Summary&lt;\/p&gt;\n\" data-image-caption=\"&lt;p&gt;4-18-2022 Strava New Caney &amp;#8211; Roman Forest &amp;#8211; Valley Ranch Data Summary&lt;\/p&gt;\n\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/4-18-2022-Strava-New-Caney-Roman-Forest-Valley-Ranch-Data-Summary.png?fit=502%2C450&amp;ssl=1\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/4-18-2022-Strava-New-Caney-Roman-Forest-Valley-Ranch-Data-Summary.png?fit=669%2C600&amp;ssl=1\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/4-18-2022-Strava-New-Caney-Roman-Forest-Valley-Ranch-Data-Summary.png?fit=1043%2C935&amp;ssl=1\" alt=\"4-18-2022 Strava New Caney - Roman Forest - Valley Ranch Data Summary\" class=\"wp-image-58996\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/4-18-2022-Strava-New-Caney-Roman-Forest-Valley-Ranch-Data-Summary.png?w=1043&amp;ssl=1 1043w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/4-18-2022-Strava-New-Caney-Roman-Forest-Valley-Ranch-Data-Summary.png?resize=502%2C450&amp;ssl=1 502w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/4-18-2022-Strava-New-Caney-Roman-Forest-Valley-Ranch-Data-Summary.png?resize=669%2C600&amp;ssl=1 669w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/4-18-2022-Strava-New-Caney-Roman-Forest-Valley-Ranch-Data-Summary.png?resize=535%2C480&amp;ssl=1 535w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1043px) 100vw, 1043px\" \/><\/a><figcaption>4-18-2022 Strava New Caney &#8211; Roman Forest &#8211; Valley Ranch Data Summary<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<iframe src=\"https:\/\/ridewithgps.com\/embeds?type=trip&#038;id=87511545&#038;sampleGraph=true\" style=\"width: 1px; min-width: 90%; height: 1100px; border: none;\" scrolling=\"no\"><\/iframe>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>New bike jersey day on today&#8217;s bike ride.
