A short ride today to avoid the heat from Tropical Storm or Hurricane Barry in Louisiana. The route was 29.07 miles long as I rode “Atascocita – Walden – E. Lake Houston Parkway”. Starting at 10:10 AM I finished at 12:32 PM.

With those miles the week totals 184.74 miles, within reach of 200+ with a Saturday ride. July stands at 398.4 miles, almost halfway to the 800 mile goal.

From the storm to the east the wind picked up and made biking to the east hard. Weather during the bike ride: start 89 (71% humidity, 78.2 dew point), mostly cloudy, wind NE 13 mph 23 mph gusts. Finish 94 (61% humidity, 78.4 dew point), mostly cloudy, wind NE 8 mph 21 mph gusts.

Day two with the Koobi saddle went well. My butt is recovering from the Fizik saddle with the much gentler sitting on the Koobi.

As it stands the stormy weather will be well east of Houston so a Saturday bike ride is in the plans.
