After making a run to Walmart to exchange an item I got ready to go for today&#8217;s bike ride. The temperature fluctuated between 60 and 63 but I dressed warmly and headed out on my Cervelo Caledonia bike at 1:07 PM. Weather radar showed a big patch of green on the southwest side of Houston moving a little towards Kingwood. With that in mind and chilly weather I decided to ride the <strong>Kingwood &#8211; Brooklyn Trails<\/strong> route to not stray too far from home in case rain happened. Leg warmers, long sleeve thermal jersey, wind jacket and full finger gloves kept me comfortable most of the ride as I covered 23.48 miles leaving 5 more miles to reach my goal. Tomorrow&#8217;s weather looks better to get those 5 miles and more. I finished the ride at 2:59 PM without and rain.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Weather: Start 63 degrees, humidity 55%, dew point 46.7, overcast, wind N 9 mph; Finish 62 degrees, humidity 60%, dew point 48.3, overcast, wind N 7 mph.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<center><iframe src=\"https:\/\/ridewithgps.com\/embeds?type=trip&#038;id=158505883&#038;sampleGraph=true&#038;distanceMarkers=true\" style=\"width: 1px; min-width: 90%; height: 700px; border: none;\" scrolling=\"no\"><\/iframe>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.strava.com\/activities\/11051045573\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1042\" height=\"577\" data-attachment-id=\"64890\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/3-27-2024-strava-ride-summary-kingwood-brooklyn-trails\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/3-27-2024-Strava-Ride-Summary-Kingwood-Brooklyn-Trails.png?fit=1042%2C577&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"1042,577\" 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=\"3-27-2024 Strava Ride Summary Kingwood-Brooklyn Trails\" data-image-description=\"&lt;p&gt;3-27-2024 Strava Ride Summary Kingwood-Brooklyn Trails&lt;\/p&gt;\n\" data-image-caption=\"&lt;p&gt;3-27-2024 Strava Ride Summary Kingwood-Brooklyn Trails&lt;\/p&gt;\n\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/3-27-2024-Strava-Ride-Summary-Kingwood-Brooklyn-Trails.png?fit=600%2C332&amp;ssl=1\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/3-27-2024-Strava-Ride-Summary-Kingwood-Brooklyn-Trails.png?fit=800%2C443&amp;ssl=1\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/3-27-2024-Strava-Ride-Summary-Kingwood-Brooklyn-Trails.png?resize=1042%2C577&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"3-27-2024 Strava Ride Summary Kingwood-Brooklyn Trails\" class=\"wp-image-64890\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/3-27-2024-Strava-Ride-Summary-Kingwood-Brooklyn-Trails.png?w=1042&amp;ssl=1 1042w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/3-27-2024-Strava-Ride-Summary-Kingwood-Brooklyn-Trails.png?resize=600%2C332&amp;ssl=1 600w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/3-27-2024-Strava-Ride-Summary-Kingwood-Brooklyn-Trails.png?resize=800%2C443&amp;ssl=1 800w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/3-27-2024-Strava-Ride-Summary-Kingwood-Brooklyn-Trails.png?resize=640%2C354&amp;ssl=1 640w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1042px) 100vw, 1042px\" \/><\/a><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">3-27-2024 Strava Ride Summary Kingwood-Brooklyn Trails<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/center>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>My aversion to below 60 degree weather almost got the better of me today but I kept thinking about only needing 28 miles to reach my March goal of 680 miles.
