Dark Then Gray Changing to Some White Clouds Bike Ride
After last evening’s nice rain (1.55″ at my home) today started out with some dark clouds floating around. That didn’t deter me from biking so I set out on the “Atascocita South – Walden – Huffman” route and biked 35.14 miles. This put me past my May goal of 660 miles by 1.81 miles.
For the first 10 miles I thought I might get caught in rain but the dark clouds went away replaced by gray ones and then some white clouds.
The weather during the bike ride: start 83 (79% humidity), mostly cloudy, wind SE 9 mph. Finish 84 (58% humidity), mostly cloudy, wind SE 7 mph. I started biking at 11:11 am and finished at 1:45 pm. The usual attire: shorts and short sleeve jersey. Some places along the route looked like they got more rain and some a lot less if any at all. More rain is in the forecast for later today. The high humidity made for a muggie bike ride.
I made a brief stop at the Huffman Chevron to take a drink and give my legs a minute to prepare for the ride west on FM 1960. I expected the wind to offer resistance but it turned out to not be too bad biking over Lake Houston.
Rain might hang around for Tuesday but I plan on biking if there is some dry time.
