A Real Cool Front, Mileage Goal Accomplished Bike Ride
Two points about today’s bike ride: the temperature and reaching my mileage goal for September.
When I got up this morning the temperature was 69 and by the time I was ready to leave 10:30 am it was 72. At first I wasn’t going to wear a long sleeve jersey based on my short walk to get the newspaper earlier but sanity prevailed and I wore a long sleeve jersey under a University of Cincinnati Bearcats short sleeve jersey. I was glad because biking at 15 to 20 mph is cooler than walking at 3 mph to get the newspaper.
Due to a time constraint I chose the “Atascocita – Walden – E. Lake Houston Parkway” route and biked 29.47 miles which put September mileage at 703.89 miles, exceeding my goal by 3.89 miles. Hopefully with 3 potential biking days left I can add to that.

The overcast sky kept the sun from warming me up but pedaling the bike made up for that most of the ride.
Friday will be warmer and I will not have the time constraint like today.
