Normally I run errands after my bike ride but today I did the errands first and then rode. To keep that theme going I took my <strong>Atascocita &#8211; Walden &#8211; Spanish Cove Drive<\/strong> route and rode as sections as I could in reverse. This resulted in a new route, <strong>Atascocita &#8211; Huffman &#8211; Spanish Cove &#8211; Walden<\/strong>. The scenery looks different when I ride the opposite direction. Several places I didn&#8217;t remember the last time I rode the reverse. While I tried to coax some warmer temperature I&#8217;m afraid that different really work, it was 69 when I started at 1:49 PM and 69 when I finished at 4:56 PM. Riding the reverse direction on FM2100 produced a Strava <strong>2nd fastest time<\/strong>\u00a0on\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.strava.com\/activities\/11003830777\/segments\/3205652003411314762\">Huffman to Old Atascocita Rd<\/a>\u00a0(3:13).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Preparing for my bike tour at the end of the month I rode my Canyon Endurace CF 7 with the 700&#215;40 tires on the DT Swiss Endurace LN rims, MTB shoes and pedals. At the start I got a low battery warning on the Bolt computer. It didn&#8217;t tell me which battery so I checked the SRAM app and found it was the rear derailleur battery. I substituted a battery from my Lynskey Helix and charged the battery while I was gone on the ride. When I got home another alert came up for the front derailleur battery and I charged it after the ride. At the start of the ride the Quarq powermeter wasn&#8217;t connecting to the Bolt computer and I replaced that battery too. Good to get these set before the bike tour and I will charge the derailleur batteries before the tour to be safe.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The overcast sky and 69 degrees kept me chilly during the ride. The long sleeve jersey and wind jacket weren&#8217;t quite enough to warm me. Thankfully the wind was only 6 mph.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<center><div class=\"fatmap-embed-placeholder\" data-type=\"lived-adventure\" data-id=\"115804524\" data-screen=\"elevation-profile\"><\/div>\n<script defer src=\"https:\/\/embeds.fatmap.com\/embed.js\"><\/script>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.strava.com\/activities\/11003830777\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1045\" height=\"609\" data-attachment-id=\"64847\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/3-20-2024-strava-ride-summary-atascocita-huffman-spanish-cove-walden\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/3-20-2024-Strava-Ride-Summary-Atascocita-Huffman-Spanish-Cove-Walden.png?fit=1045%2C609&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"1045,609\" 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=\"3-20-2024 Strava Ride Summary Atascocita-Huffman-Spanish Cove-Walden\" data-image-description=\"&lt;p&gt;3-20-2024 Strava Ride Summary Atascocita-Huffman-Spanish Cove-Walden&lt;\/p&gt;\n\" data-image-caption=\"&lt;p&gt;3-20-2024 Strava Ride Summary Atascocita-Huffman-Spanish Cove-Walden&lt;\/p&gt;\n\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/3-20-2024-Strava-Ride-Summary-Atascocita-Huffman-Spanish-Cove-Walden.png?fit=600%2C350&amp;ssl=1\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/3-20-2024-Strava-Ride-Summary-Atascocita-Huffman-Spanish-Cove-Walden.png?fit=800%2C466&amp;ssl=1\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/3-20-2024-Strava-Ride-Summary-Atascocita-Huffman-Spanish-Cove-Walden.png?resize=1045%2C609&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"3-20-2024 Strava Ride Summary Atascocita-Huffman-Spanish Cove-Walden\" class=\"wp-image-64847\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/3-20-2024-Strava-Ride-Summary-Atascocita-Huffman-Spanish-Cove-Walden.png?w=1045&amp;ssl=1 1045w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/3-20-2024-Strava-Ride-Summary-Atascocita-Huffman-Spanish-Cove-Walden.png?resize=600%2C350&amp;ssl=1 600w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/3-20-2024-Strava-Ride-Summary-Atascocita-Huffman-Spanish-Cove-Walden.png?resize=800%2C466&amp;ssl=1 800w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/3-20-2024-Strava-Ride-Summary-Atascocita-Huffman-Spanish-Cove-Walden.png?resize=640%2C373&amp;ssl=1 640w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1045px) 100vw, 1045px\" \/><\/a><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">3-20-2024 Strava Ride Summary Atascocita-Huffman-Spanish Cove-Walden<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div><\/center>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I tried to coax a few more degrees of warmth by reversing my typical day.
