The challenge for the bike ride was the strong NW wind, 17 mph with 30 mph gusts. The temperature edged up to 70 degrees making the wind&#8217;s bite a little crisper. To combat the wind chill I wore a heavier long sleeve jersey under a short sleeve jersey. Riding in the shade out in the open was chilly in the early part of the ride. Once I warmed up it was quite as cool. Because of the start time and the wind I rode the<strong> Forest Cove &#8211; Oakhurst &#8211; Kingwood<\/strong> route in place of a more northerly turn around point in Valley Ranch. The actual route went through Auburn Trails section of Oakhurst while the previous rides on this route didn&#8217;t go that far north and were a few miles shorter. Today I biked 26.24 miles ending the week at 235.28 miles. Biking north to Auburn Trails was the hard part of the bike ride due to the wind. The trees helped break the wind sometimes though. When I finished the wind was even stronger than the start: N 22 mph gusts 31 mph. It could be chilly tonight.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-1 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure
