I rode north on the <strong>Kingwood &#8211; SH 242 &#8211; Kingwood<\/strong> route for the first time since <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/sporttracks.mobi\/activity\/31868242\">March 13, 2024<\/a><\/strong>. Since my last visit the construction at SH242 looks finished as far as I could see west from US59. I will explore this more on the next ride that direction. My goal for May is 749 miles or about 25 miles each day. I&#8217;m off to a good start riding 37.68 miles today. I saw another cyclist near the end of the ride on Tree Lane by Bear Branch Elementary School. I started at 11:11 AM and finished at 2:09 PM. Weather: Start 80 degrees, humidity 78%, dew point 72.5, 78% cloud cover, wind SE 9 mph gusts 13 mph; Finish 84 degrees, humidity 73%, dew point 74.7, 73% cloud cover, wind SE 14 mph gusts 19 mph. A headwind biking back to Kingwood made for hard pedaling at times. My legs powered through that.
