This afternoon’s weather is the complete opposite of what was happening around 6 AM this morning. A rain storm passed through leaving .85″ of rain at my house. By 10 AM the sun was out and I knew the streets would dry off quickly. By the time I left home at 12:30 it was hard to tell it had even rained as far as wet pavement went. Leaves and limbs dotted the landscape but did not cause a problem to ride. I wanted to ride at least 34 miles so I modified the “New Caney – Roman Forest – Valley Ranch” route to become the “New Caney – Tavola – Valley Ranch” route. At Roman Forest Blvd. I rode right and into the new planned community called Tavola. It has been awhile since I have been there. The number of houses increased and there is a new school. This route was 34.6 miles meeting my goal. This moved my total for April up to 713 miles, 59 miles short of my 772 mile goal. I won’t be able to ride tomorrow leaving Friday and Saturday. Friday’s weather forecast is good until 5 pm but Saturday looks like rain all day. I will see how far I can ride on Friday.

I repeated my rest stop again by stopping at the Oakhurst Community Recreation Center. The shade and bench were great as the light breeze moved through the trees. I took this picture of my Edge 520 when I stopped there and the weather while I ate a snack.
