After two days biking south I went north on the <strong>New Caney &#8211; Tavola &#8211; Valley Ranch<\/strong> route. The start was 5 minutes earlier than yesterday at 8:56 AM on my Cervelo Caledonia bike. In Tavola I added two short loops on streets off of Via Principal Parkway to add a few tenths of a mile to the distance. It&#8217;s been 20 days since I rode this route last. I biked 36.74 miles which is about the average distance the last 12 months. Those miles boosted my week total to 168.59 miles which above the typical number for Thursdays. I moved to 588.14 miles leaving 161.9 miles to my goal. In the last 12 months I rode my Cervelo for all of the rides except two. I finished the ride at 11:41 AM.<\/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\/05\/5-18-2023-SportTracks-Recent-Ride-History-New-Caney-Tavola-Valley-Ranch.png?ssl=1\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"556\" data-attachment-id=\"62441\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/5-18-2023-sporttracks-recent-ride-history-new-caney-tavola-valley-ranch\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/5-18-2023-SportTracks-Recent-Ride-History-New-Caney-Tavola-Valley-Ranch.png?fit=1838%2C852&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"1838,852\" 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=\"5-18-2023 SportTracks Recent Ride History New Caney-Tavola-Valley Ranch\" data-image-description=\"&lt;p&gt;5-18-2023 SportTracks 12 Months Ride History New Caney-Tavola-Valley Ranch&lt;\/p&gt;\n\" data-image-caption=\"&lt;p&gt;5-18-2023 SportTracks Recent Ride History New Caney-Tavola-Valley Ranch&lt;\/p&gt;\n\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/5-18-2023-SportTracks-Recent-Ride-History-New-Caney-Tavola-Valley-Ranch.png?fit=600%2C278&amp;ssl=1\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/5-18-2023-SportTracks-Recent-Ride-History-New-Caney-Tavola-Valley-Ranch.png?fit=800%2C371&amp;ssl=1\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/5-18-2023-SportTracks-Recent-Ride-History-New-Caney-Tavola-Valley-Ranch.png?resize=1200%2C556&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"5-18-2023 SportTracks Recent Ride History New Caney-Tavola-Valley Ranch\" class=\"wp-image-62441\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/5-18-2023-SportTracks-Recent-Ride-History-New-Caney-Tavola-Valley-Ranch.png?w=1838&amp;ssl=1 1838w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/5-18-2023-SportTracks-Recent-Ride-History-New-Caney-Tavola-Valley-Ranch.png?resize=600%2C278&amp;ssl=1 600w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/5-18-2023-SportTracks-Recent-Ride-History-New-Caney-Tavola-Valley-Ranch.png?resize=800%2C371&amp;ssl=1 800w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/5-18-2023-SportTracks-Recent-Ride-History-New-Caney-Tavola-Valley-Ranch.png?resize=640%2C297&amp;ssl=1 640w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/5-18-2023-SportTracks-Recent-Ride-History-New-Caney-Tavola-Valley-Ranch.png?resize=1536%2C712&amp;ssl=1 1536w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><\/a><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">5-18-2023 SportTracks Recent Ride History New Caney-Tavola-Valley Ranch<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As I rode through Woodridge Forest on Log Orchard Lane three large dogs came out of a driveway barking. Two of the three gave chase, one on each side of me. I sped up but they kept even with me but lost interest as I neared the stop sign where a car was standing. I went around the car in case the dogs caught up. This was the first time encountering dogs on this street. Hopefully the last since I ride there each week.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Weather conditions: Start 77 degrees, 69% humidity, 65.8 dew point, a few clouds, wind NE 5 mph; Finish 81 degrees, 62% humidity, 67 dew point, a few clouds, wind variable 4 mph. The light wind felt good blowing against my jersey and arm sleeves.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\"><p lang=\"zxx\" dir=\"ltr\"><a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/2lU3sq8Jqf\">https:\/\/t.co\/2lU3sq8Jqf<\/a><\/p>&mdash; Rick Ankrum (@texbiker) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/texbiker\/status\/1659275954491891712?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">May 18, 2023<\/a><\/blockquote><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"strava-embed-placeholder\" data-embed-type=\"activity\" data-embed-id=\"9095348568\"><\/div><script src=\"https:\/\/strava-embeds.com\/embed.js\"><\/script>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><a href=\"https:\/\/sporttracks.mobi\/activity\/30917382\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"746\" data-attachment-id=\"62442\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/5-18-2023-sporttracks-ride-summary-new-caney-tavola-valley-ranch\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/5-18-2023-SportTracks-Ride-Summary-New-Caney-Tavola-Valley-Ranch.png?fit=1829%2C1137&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"1829,1137\" 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=\"5-18-2023 SportTracks Ride Summary New Caney-Tavola-Valley Ranch\" data-image-description=\"&lt;p&gt;5-18-2023 SportTracks Ride Summary New Caney-Tavola-Valley Ranch&lt;\/p&gt;\n\" data-image-caption=\"&lt;p&gt;5-18-2023 SportTracks Ride Summary New Caney-Tavola-Valley Ranch&lt;\/p&gt;\n\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/5-18-2023-SportTracks-Ride-Summary-New-Caney-Tavola-Valley-Ranch.png?fit=600%2C373&amp;ssl=1\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/5-18-2023-SportTracks-Ride-Summary-New-Caney-Tavola-Valley-Ranch.png?fit=800%2C497&amp;ssl=1\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/5-18-2023-SportTracks-Ride-Summary-New-Caney-Tavola-Valley-Ranch.png?resize=1200%2C746&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"5-18-2023 SportTracks Ride Summary New Caney-Tavola-Valley Ranch\" class=\"wp-image-62442\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/5-18-2023-SportTracks-Ride-Summary-New-Caney-Tavola-Valley-Ranch.png?w=1829&amp;ssl=1 1829w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/5-18-2023-SportTracks-Ride-Summary-New-Caney-Tavola-Valley-Ranch.png?resize=600%2C373&amp;ssl=1 600w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/5-18-2023-SportTracks-Ride-Summary-New-Caney-Tavola-Valley-Ranch.png?resize=800%2C497&amp;ssl=1 800w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/5-18-2023-SportTracks-Ride-Summary-New-Caney-Tavola-Valley-Ranch.png?resize=640%2C398&amp;ssl=1 640w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/5-18-2023-SportTracks-Ride-Summary-New-Caney-Tavola-Valley-Ranch.png?resize=1536%2C955&amp;ssl=1 1536w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><\/a><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">5-18-2023 SportTracks Ride Summary New Caney-Tavola-Valley Ranch<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Recovery bike ride with a shorter time window to ride for today.
