I didn’t expect to ride today but my Saturday morning project ended in time. I planned on biking to E. Lake Houston Parkway and FM 1960 but as I came to FM 1960 from Walden I saw dark clouds gathering to the west so I changed to the “Atascocita – Walden” route to try and beat the rain back home. As I pulled up to finish the ride the rain started but I didn’t get much wetter than I was from the perspiration.

When I started at 11:53 AM the overcast sky looked like it might break up some but that didn’t happen. It was 86 degrees with 75% humidity making for a muggy ride. At the 1:37 PM finish in the rain it was a few degrees cooler. Along with this the wind was from the SE at 13 mph.

One other cyclist crossed my path as I approached Farmington Road he was going west and I rode south on Pinehurst Trail.

Yesterday afternoon I received the three warranty replacement Bellwether Endurance Gel Shorts letting ride with a new pair today. The short sleeve jersey was just right for the weather.

I need 158 miles to reach 6,800 miles YTD by the end of October.
