I missed one other thing I should&#8217;ve checked, the batteries for the speed and cadence sensors. I first noticed the sensors not working around the 1\/2 mile mark when the odometer on my Wahoo Bolt computer was a tenth of a mile off. As the ride progressed I saw other signs of weak batteries. I will replace them when I get home.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The last time I rode outside was January 18 and since then all of my rides have using Zwift. The weather hasn&#8217;t been kind.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I started the ride a little later than I wanted because I watched the men&#8217;s elite UCI Cyclocross World race. It was a great race. So I chose a route that should&#8217;ve been around 26 miles, <em>Kingwood-Community Drive-Valley Ranch<\/em>. With the battery problem the Bolt only recorded 24.01 miles. I might need those 2 miles as I work towards my 300 road mile goal for February. The table below compares some of the past rides on this route. Today&#8217;s was the shortest distance and lowest average speed.<\/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\/2023\/02\/2-5-2023-SportTracks-Rides-Comparison-Kingwood-Community-Drive-Valley-Ranch.png?ssl=1\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"473\" data-attachment-id=\"61402\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/2-5-2023-sporttracks-rides-comparison-kingwood-community-drive-valley-ranch\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/2-5-2023-SportTracks-Rides-Comparison-Kingwood-Community-Drive-Valley-Ranch.png?fit=1844%2C727&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"1844,727\" 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=\"2-5-2023 SportTracks Rides Comparison Kingwood-Community Drive-Valley Ranch\" data-image-description=\"&lt;p&gt;2-5-2023 SportTracks Rides Comparison Kingwood-Community Drive-Valley Ranch&lt;\/p&gt;\n\" data-image-caption=\"&lt;p&gt;2-5-2023 SportTracks Rides Comparison Kingwood-Community Drive-Valley Ranch&lt;\/p&gt;\n\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/2-5-2023-SportTracks-Rides-Comparison-Kingwood-Community-Drive-Valley-Ranch.png?fit=600%2C237&amp;ssl=1\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/2-5-2023-SportTracks-Rides-Comparison-Kingwood-Community-Drive-Valley-Ranch.png?fit=800%2C315&amp;ssl=1\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/2-5-2023-SportTracks-Rides-Comparison-Kingwood-Community-Drive-Valley-Ranch.png?resize=1200%2C473&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"2-5-2023 SportTracks Rides Comparison Kingwood-Community Drive-Valley Ranch\" class=\"wp-image-61402\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/2-5-2023-SportTracks-Rides-Comparison-Kingwood-Community-Drive-Valley-Ranch.png?w=1844&amp;ssl=1 1844w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/2-5-2023-SportTracks-Rides-Comparison-Kingwood-Community-Drive-Valley-Ranch.png?resize=600%2C237&amp;ssl=1 600w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/2-5-2023-SportTracks-Rides-Comparison-Kingwood-Community-Drive-Valley-Ranch.png?resize=800%2C315&amp;ssl=1 800w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/2-5-2023-SportTracks-Rides-Comparison-Kingwood-Community-Drive-Valley-Ranch.png?resize=640%2C252&amp;ssl=1 640w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/2-5-2023-SportTracks-Rides-Comparison-Kingwood-Community-Drive-Valley-Ranch.png?resize=1536%2C606&amp;ssl=1 1536w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><\/a><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">2-5-2023 SportTracks Rides Comparison Kingwood-Community Drive-Valley Ranch<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Riding my Lynskey Helix bike felt great after all those days riding my Blue Norcross AL bike on the Wahoo Kickr Core smart trainer. Unlike many routes in Zwift today&#8217;s ride only had 56 feet of elevation change. My legs felt relieved with so little climbing. The only substantial climb was the incline at Community Drive overpass.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Weather conditions: start 72, 57% humidity, dew point 56, mostly cloudy, wind SW 8 mph gusts 20 mph; finish 74, 54% humidity, dew point 56, mostly cloudy, wind SW 7 mph. I wore a light long sleeve jersey and a wind jacket and was comfortable. The weather forecast for Monday looks favorable for another road ride.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.strava.com\/activities\/8512416016\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1036\" height=\"1013\" data-attachment-id=\"61403\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/2-5-2023-strava-ride-summary-kingwood-community-drive-valley-ranch\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/2-5-2023-Strava-Ride-Summary-Kingwood-Community-Drive-Valley-Ranch.png?fit=1036%2C1013&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"1036,1013\" 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=\"2-5-2023 Strava Ride Summary Kingwood-Community Drive-Valley Ranch\" data-image-description=\"&lt;p&gt;2-5-2023 Strava Ride Summary Kingwood-Community Drive-Valley Ranch&lt;\/p&gt;\n\" data-image-caption=\"&lt;p&gt;2-5-2023 Strava Ride Summary Kingwood-Community Drive-Valley Ranch&lt;\/p&gt;\n\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/2-5-2023-Strava-Ride-Summary-Kingwood-Community-Drive-Valley-Ranch.png?fit=460%2C450&amp;ssl=1\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/2-5-2023-Strava-Ride-Summary-Kingwood-Community-Drive-Valley-Ranch.png?fit=614%2C600&amp;ssl=1\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/2-5-2023-Strava-Ride-Summary-Kingwood-Community-Drive-Valley-Ranch.png?resize=1036%2C1013&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"2-5-2023 Strava Ride Summary Kingwood-Community Drive-Valley Ranch\" class=\"wp-image-61403\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/2-5-2023-Strava-Ride-Summary-Kingwood-Community-Drive-Valley-Ranch.png?w=1036&amp;ssl=1 1036w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/2-5-2023-Strava-Ride-Summary-Kingwood-Community-Drive-Valley-Ranch.png?resize=460%2C450&amp;ssl=1 460w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/2-5-2023-Strava-Ride-Summary-Kingwood-Community-Drive-Valley-Ranch.png?resize=614%2C600&amp;ssl=1 614w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/2-5-2023-Strava-Ride-Summary-Kingwood-Community-Drive-Valley-Ranch.png?resize=491%2C480&amp;ssl=1 491w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1036px) 100vw, 1036px\" \/><\/a><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">2-5-2023 Strava Ride Summary Kingwood-Community Drive-Valley Ranch<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<iframe src=\"https:\/\/ridewithgps.com\/embeds?type=trip&#038;id=112761795&#038;sampleGraph=true\" style=\"width: 1px; min-width: 100%; height: 1000px; border: none;\" scrolling=\"no\"><\/iframe>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Yesterday I aired up the tires on both bikes in preparation for today&#8217;s ride on the roads.
