The weather was warm enough and I wanted to leave early to see other cyclists around Lake Houston. I rode my Cervelo Caledonia bike following my &#8220;Atascocita &#8211; Huffman &#8211; Walden&#8221; route. Before the ride I biked 180.44 miles this week and today&#8217;s ride would be long enough to get me over the 200 mile mark for the week.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>By the time I finished at 11:04 AM (some rides didn&#8217;t start that early this week) I rode 33.27 miles putting the week at 213.72 miles and the month at 1014.93 miles. This is the 7th week in a row at 200+ miles. April is the first month since July 2021 at 1000+ miles. July was 1027.67 miles. Year to date I biked 2301.5 road miles and 679.9 Zwift miles for a total of 2981.4 miles. I biked today&#8217;s route 5 times this year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><a

some are in the video. Also I saw route markers for tomorrow&#8217;s Tour de Rouge bike ride that starts in Humble.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>No problem riding through the road construction area at Atascocita shores Drive and FM 1960. I went through riding east and west to get to Walden. FM 2100 north of Old Atascocita Road continued the barrels marking the right shoulder which I biked behind. Two places workers were getting ready to pour concrete for driveways onto FM 2100 and I briefly moved to the left of the barrels to get around them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Wind behaved today staying at 10 mph or below. I felt a few sprinkles on the east side of Lake Houston and some clouds looked like they contained moisture. I wore shorts, a long sleeve t-shirt, and a short sleeve Texbiker.net jersey. Weather: start 75 (humidity 91%, dew point 71), mostly cloudy, wind S 5 mph; finish 80 (humidity 77%, dew point 72), mostly cloudy, wind S 10 mph.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Some data from the <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/axs.sram.com\/activities\/wahoo-262128671__1651325659\">AXS.SRAM.com ride report<\/a><\/strong>: total ride time 2:22:50, 35&#215;15 ride time 55:02, 35&#215;13 ride time 1:07:38, 23 RD shifts, 35&#215;15 distance 12.2 miles, 35&#215;13 distance 17 miles, max power 411 watts, and average cadence 57 rpm.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>After yesterday&#8217;s bike ride I waxed the Cervelo&#8217;s chain because it was making sounds during the ride. Today it was quiet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.strava.com\/activities\/7065812582\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1039\" height=\"932\" data-attachment-id=\"59101\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/4-30-2022-strava-atascocita-huffman-walden-data-summary\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/4-30-2022-Strava-Atascocita-Huffman-Walden-Data-Summary.png?fit=1039%2C932&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"1039,932\" 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=\"4-30-2022 Strava Atascocita-Huffman-Walden Data Summary\" data-image-description=\"&lt;p&gt;4-30-2022 Strava Atascocita-Huffman-Walden Data Summary&lt;\/p&gt;\n\" data-image-caption=\"&lt;p&gt;4-30-2022 Strava Atascocita-Huffman-Walden Data Summary&lt;\/p&gt;\n\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/4-30-2022-Strava-Atascocita-Huffman-Walden-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\/4-30-2022-Strava-Atascocita-Huffman-Walden-Data-Summary.png?fit=669%2C600&amp;ssl=1\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/4-30-2022-Strava-Atascocita-Huffman-Walden-Data-Summary.png?fit=1039%2C932&amp;ssl=1\" alt=\"4-30-2022 Strava Atascocita-Huffman-Walden Data Summary\" class=\"wp-image-59101\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/4-30-2022-Strava-Atascocita-Huffman-Walden-Data-Summary.png?w=1039&amp;ssl=1 1039w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/4-30-2022-Strava-Atascocita-Huffman-Walden-Data-Summary.png?resize=502%2C450&amp;ssl=1 502w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/4-30-2022-Strava-Atascocita-Huffman-Walden-Data-Summary.png?resize=669%2C600&amp;ssl=1 669w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/4-30-2022-Strava-Atascocita-Huffman-Walden-Data-Summary.png?resize=535%2C480&amp;ssl=1 535w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1039px) 100vw, 1039px\" \/><\/a><figcaption>4-30-2022 Strava Atascocita-Huffman-Walden Data Summary<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<iframe src=\"https:\/\/ridewithgps.com\/embeds?type=trip&#038;id=88651577&#038;sampleGraph=true\" style=\"width: 1px; min-width: 100%; height: 1000px; border: none;\" scrolling=\"no\"><\/iframe>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Today&#8217;s bike ride started at 8:34 AM, the earliest start time this week.
