I can assure you I was no where near that fast. I don&#8217;t drive my Jeep that fast. Being Thursday I usually bike to the Huffman area and today was no different. I chose the same route name as Tuesday, <em>Atascocita &#8211; Walden &#8211; Huffman<\/em>, but I changed a few streets in Kingwood and added the Atascocita Hike &amp; Bike Trail instead of riding on Water Point Trail and other streets east of W. Lake Houston Parkway. This added some distance to the ride and I biked 36.1 miles compared to Tuesday&#8217;s 35.39 miles. I rolled out at 9:22 AM and finished at 12:18 PM. I saw two other cyclists, one on Chanay Lane in Kingwood early in the ride and Pete again on Pines Place Drive in Atascocita. Today&#8217;s ride put me over my 720 mile goal for the month with 751.21 miles and increased my week total to 145.96 miles. I should be able to ride 200+ miles this week. On Saturday I will bike the<strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.BikeReg.com\/56981\"> Rollin&#8217; Pearland<\/a><\/strong> ride on the 43 mile route. Today was the 26th time on this route in 2022. Updating my miles for 2022 I&#8217;ve rode 7,486 miles putting me 97 miles ahead of 2021 and 352 miles more than 2020.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The wind picked up during the ride with 16 mph gusts and 8 mph from the north which accounts for the hard effort whenever I had a headwind. Pete commented as we passed about the strong wind. Later today fall arrives but the forecast doesn&#8217;t change to reflect that until a front arrives late Monday. Weather during the bike ride: start 82 (humidity 76%, dew point 73), fair, wind NW 4 mph; finish 93 (humidity 50%, dew point 72), fair, wind N 8 mph gusts 16 mph. I stopped at the Exxon station at E. Lake Houston Parkway and FM 1960 to get ice for my water bottle. It was hot enough I should&#8217;ve used my CamelBak.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">At the Atascocita Shore Drive and FM 1960 construction zone I rode on the asphalt base layer on the way back. Maybe the concrete will be poured soon. You can see what it looks like in the video.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/axs.sram.com\/activities\/wahoo-262128671__1663856569\">AXS.SRAM ride report<\/a><\/strong> shows 1:41:56 using the 35&#215;13 gears out of riding time of 2:48:05 with 31 RD shifts. I remembered to change to the 35&#215;15 when stopping most of the time.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.strava.com\/activities\/7850340348\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1046\" height=\"928\" data-attachment-id=\"60184\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/9-22-2022-strava-ride-data-summary-atascocita-walden-huffman\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/9-22-2022-Strava-Ride-Data-Summary-Atascocita-Walden-Huffman.jpg?fit=1046%2C928&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"1046,928\" 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=\"9-22-2022 Strava Ride Data Summary Atascocita-Walden-Huffman\" data-image-description=\"&lt;p&gt;9-22-2022 Strava Ride Data Summary Atascocita-Walden-Huffman&lt;\/p&gt;\n\" data-image-caption=\"&lt;p&gt;9-22-2022 Strava Ride Data Summary Atascocita-Walden-Huffman&lt;\/p&gt;\n\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/9-22-2022-Strava-Ride-Data-Summary-Atascocita-Walden-Huffman.jpg?fit=507%2C450&amp;ssl=1\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/9-22-2022-Strava-Ride-Data-Summary-Atascocita-Walden-Huffman.jpg?fit=676%2C600&amp;ssl=1\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/9-22-2022-Strava-Ride-Data-Summary-Atascocita-Walden-Huffman.jpg?resize=1046%2C928&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"9-22-2022 Strava Ride Data Summary Atascocita-Walden-Huffman\" class=\"wp-image-60184\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/9-22-2022-Strava-Ride-Data-Summary-Atascocita-Walden-Huffman.jpg?w=1046&amp;ssl=1 1046w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/9-22-2022-Strava-Ride-Data-Summary-Atascocita-Walden-Huffman.jpg?resize=507%2C450&amp;ssl=1 507w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/9-22-2022-Strava-Ride-Data-Summary-Atascocita-Walden-Huffman.jpg?resize=676%2C600&amp;ssl=1 676w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/9-22-2022-Strava-Ride-Data-Summary-Atascocita-Walden-Huffman.jpg?resize=541%2C480&amp;ssl=1 541w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1046px) 100vw, 1046px\" \/><\/a><figcaption>9-22-2022 Strava Ride Data Summary Atascocita-Walden-Huffman<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<iframe src=\"https:\/\/ridewithgps.com\/embeds?type=trip&#038;id=103681273&#038;sampleGraph=true\" style=\"width: 1px; min-width: 100%; height: 1000px; border: none;\" scrolling=\"no\"><\/iframe>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>If you watch the video at the end the route is traced out showing that I hit 88 mph as I started to cross Lake Houston.
