I began the ride at 1:21 PM and finished at 3:03 PM. With all of the sun and heat I rode the Kingwood streets taking advantage of the shade where possible. It wasn&#8217;t a long ride covering 19.89 miles but enough to put my week&#8217;s total miles up to 231.57 and June to 848.87 miles. This is the 5th week in a row of 200+ miles. And my Lynskey Helix bike now has 314 miles under its wheels.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I made a discovery today as I rode through a shopping center undergoing redevelopment I saw a new Trek bike shop. Watch the video to see what I found. The shopping center is in the NW corner of Kingwood Drive and W. Lake Houston Parkway. I went inside looking around and learned they&#8217;ve been open about 3 weeks. Yesterday I watched a short bike ride clip on Strava that said it was the Trek Kingwood ride and I wondered what they meant. Now I know. I asked if they were connected to Trek Atascocita and the man said they were from there. I think I recognized the man I talked to.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">With all of the heat the pond looking cooling.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"798\" height=\"600\" data-attachment-id=\"59533\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/6-26-2022-lynskey-helix-fosters-mill-pond-1\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/6-26-2022-Lynskey-Helix-Fosters-Mill-Pond-1-scaled.jpg?fit=2560%2C1925&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"2560,1925\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;1.88&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;OnePlus 9 Pro 5G&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;1656252693&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;6.064&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;102&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0.00041339396444812&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;1&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"6-26-2022 Lynskey Helix Fosters Mill Pond-1\" data-image-description=\"&lt;p&gt;6-26-2022 Lynskey Helix Fosters Mill Pond-1&lt;\/p&gt;\n\" data-image-caption=\"&lt;p&gt;6-26-2022 Lynskey Helix Fosters Mill Pond-1&lt;\/p&gt;\n\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/6-26-2022-Lynskey-Helix-Fosters-Mill-Pond-1-scaled.jpg?fit=598%2C450&amp;ssl=1\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/6-26-2022-Lynskey-Helix-Fosters-Mill-Pond-1-scaled.jpg?fit=798%2C600&amp;ssl=1\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/6-26-2022-Lynskey-Helix-Fosters-Mill-Pond-1.jpg?resize=798%2C600\" alt=\"6-26-2022 Lynskey Helix Fosters Mill Pond-1\" class=\"wp-image-59533\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/6-26-2022-Lynskey-Helix-Fosters-Mill-Pond-1-scaled.jpg?resize=798%2C600&amp;ssl=1 798w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/6-26-2022-Lynskey-Helix-Fosters-Mill-Pond-1-scaled.jpg?resize=598%2C450&amp;ssl=1 598w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/6-26-2022-Lynskey-Helix-Fosters-Mill-Pond-1-scaled.jpg?resize=638%2C480&amp;ssl=1 638w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/6-26-2022-Lynskey-Helix-Fosters-Mill-Pond-1-scaled.jpg?resize=1536%2C1155&amp;ssl=1 1536w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/6-26-2022-Lynskey-Helix-Fosters-Mill-Pond-1-scaled.jpg?resize=2048%2C1540&amp;ssl=1 2048w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/6-26-2022-Lynskey-Helix-Fosters-Mill-Pond-1-scaled.jpg?w=2400 2400w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 798px) 100vw, 798px\" \/><figcaption>6-26-2022 Lynskey Helix Fosters Mill Pond-1<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Weather conditions: start 95 (humidity 39%, dew point 66), mostly clear, wind 3 mph; finish 97 (humidity 32%, dew point 62), a few clouds, wind variable 4 mph.
