The late summer weather was just right and I managed to start the ride relatively early rolling out at 10:03 AM on the Canyon Endurace CF 7 bike. Counting today this was the 7th time biking this route in 2023, four times on the Canyon, 2 times on the Cervelo Caledonia, and once on the Lynskey Helix. The average distance for 2023 rides is almost 44 miles and today I rode 43.11 miles improving my position towards November&#8217;s 360 mile goal to 141 miles, 39% of the way. This is more road miles than the whole November 2022; I was on a trip half of November 2022 out of state.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Being a Monday in the fall I didn&#8217;t know if the greenway would be busy or deserted. It turned out in the middle. When I arrived at the US59 trailhead there 8 vehicles parked, one with bikes on a rack. On the greenway I passed more than a dozen cyclists, some in both directions. Walkers and a jogger plus a skateboarder, too. The parking lot at Jesse Jones Park had a few cars. Two looked like they had bikes inside and one man yelled hello as I passed. PundT Park had about the same number of cars but I didn&#8217;t see any bikes. On the greenway I passed a man walking 4 dogs. When he came to Pundt Park I remarked at the number of dogs he had. I stopped at Pundt Park for a few minutes for a snack before heading back to the US59 trailhead. The clouds increased but I didn&#8217;t notice how much because of the trees. Wind was not too strong. The direction of the wind made it neutral riding both directions, very unusual.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The way back went on the San Jacinto Bayou Greenway and bike route through Forest Cove. I passed two cyclists on their MTB&#8217;s.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>One Strava top result: <strong>3rd fastest time<\/strong>\u00a0on\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.strava.com\/activities\/10172361100\/segments\/3156694975383646542\">MM7.0 to 59<\/a>\u00a0(29:08).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Weather: Start 77 degrees, humidity 76%, dew point 68.6, mostly cloudy, wind calm; Finish 81 degrees, humidity 57%, dew point 64.2, overcast, wind SW 10 mph. I wore my usual summer kit: shorts, arm sleeves, and short sleeve jersey. Fall weather might make this the last ride on the Spring Creek Greenway this year.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><a
