No time for a flat tire. I rolled out at 8:56 AM on my Cervelo Caledonia bike. I chose my <em>Atascocita &#8211; Walden &#8211; Huffman<\/em> route but left off the extra side streets I added lately on the route to reduce the ride time. It would strange to get back home before I start some bike rides during the week. I finished the ride at 11:28 AM in plenty of time for the door appointment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><a href=\"https:\/\/sporttracks.mobi\/activity\/30752200\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"748\" data-attachment-id=\"62045\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/4-4-2023-sporttracks-ride-overview-atascocita-walden-huffman\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/4-4-2023-SportTracks-Ride-Overview-Atascocita-Walden-Huffman.png?fit=1828%2C1139&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"1828,1139\" 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=\"4-4-2023 SportTracks Ride Overview Atascocita-Walden-Huffman\" data-image-description=\"&lt;p&gt;4-4-2023 SportTracks Ride Overview Atascocita-Walden-Huffman&lt;\/p&gt;\n\" data-image-caption=\"&lt;p&gt;4-4-2023 SportTracks Ride Overview Atascocita-Walden-Huffman&lt;\/p&gt;\n\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/4-4-2023-SportTracks-Ride-Overview-Atascocita-Walden-Huffman.png?fit=600%2C374&amp;ssl=1\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/4-4-2023-SportTracks-Ride-Overview-Atascocita-Walden-Huffman.png?fit=800%2C498&amp;ssl=1\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/4-4-2023-SportTracks-Ride-Overview-Atascocita-Walden-Huffman.png?resize=1200%2C748&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"4-4-2023 SportTracks Ride Overview Atascocita-Walden-Huffman\" class=\"wp-image-62045\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/4-4-2023-SportTracks-Ride-Overview-Atascocita-Walden-Huffman.png?w=1828&amp;ssl=1 1828w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/4-4-2023-SportTracks-Ride-Overview-Atascocita-Walden-Huffman.png?resize=600%2C374&amp;ssl=1 600w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/4-4-2023-SportTracks-Ride-Overview-Atascocita-Walden-Huffman.png?resize=800%2C498&amp;ssl=1 800w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/4-4-2023-SportTracks-Ride-Overview-Atascocita-Walden-Huffman.png?resize=640%2C399&amp;ssl=1 640w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/4-4-2023-SportTracks-Ride-Overview-Atascocita-Walden-Huffman.png?resize=1536%2C957&amp;ssl=1 1536w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><\/a><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">4-4-2023 SportTracks Ride Overview Atascocita-Walden-Huffman<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Last evening I adjusted the BiSaddle on my Cervelo bike to match the width on my Lynskey Helix bike I rode yesterday. No problems during the ride today. At the start of the ride I could the difference but after a few miles I didn&#8217;t notice it any longer. Maybe I&#8217;ve been riding saddles wider than I need.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Weather conditions: start 75 degrees, 85% humidity, dew point 71, mostly cloudy, wind S 13 mph; finish 80 degrees, 75% humidity, dew point 72, overcast, wind SE 17 mph gusts 28 mph. Rain may arrive tomorrow.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It was hard pedaling to the turn around point at FM 2100 and Old Atascocita road into the wind. Riding east over Lake Houston with nothing to break the wind the gusts pushed the Cervelo to the left at times. I thought the wind increased from the start and gripped the bars when a gust blew into me. Going back over Lake Houston on the way back to Kingwood the wasn&#8217;t quite as pushy but the gusts were noticeable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Strava segments did not show up on the Bolt computer today. Maybe I hit something on yesterday&#8217;s ride to trigger them?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-jetpack-layout-grid column1-desktop-grid__span-6 column1-desktop-grid__row-1 column2-desktop-grid__span-6 column2-desktop-grid__start-7 column2-desktop-grid__row-1 column1-tablet-grid__span-4 column1-tablet-grid__row-1 column2-tablet-grid__span-4 column2-tablet-grid__start-5 column2-tablet-grid__row-1 column1-mobile-grid__span-4 column1-mobile-grid__row-1 column2-mobile-grid__span-4 column2-mobile-grid__row-2\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-jetpack-layout-grid-column wp-block-jetpack-layout-grid__padding-none\">\n<div class=\"strava-embed-placeholder\" data-embed-type=\"activity\" data-embed-id=\"8831881377\"><\/div><script src=\"https:\/\/strava-embeds.com\/embed.js\"><\/script>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-jetpack-layout-grid-column wp-block-jetpack-layout-grid__padding-none\">\n<iframe src=\"https:\/\/ridewithgps.com\/embeds?type=trip&#038;id=117015584&#038;sampleGraph=true&#038;distanceMarkers=true\" style=\"width: 1px; min-width: 100%; height: 700px; border: none;\" scrolling=\"no\"><\/iframe>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I was motivated to start today&#8217;s bike ride early for a weekday with Sturdy Doors arriving at 12:30 to refinish my front door.
