I watched the Giro d’ Italia Prologue for about 2 hours and then got ready for today’s bike ride. By then the temperature was in the upper 70’s letting me leave the long sleeve jersey at home. I’ll finish the Prologue after today’s bike Ride.

Wheels down and rolling at 9:12 AM as the Canyon Endurace CF SLX bike and I rode off following the “Atascocita – FM 2100 – Walden” route. I rode the longer lead out to begin the ride pushing the ride to 33.13 miles, a couple miles longer than usual. This increased the week’s total to 197.81 miles and May to 255.11 miles. I should ride tomorrow to make it a 200 mile week. I finished the ride at 11:54 AM.

One of the things I look forward to on Saturday is seeing other cyclists. I saw several as you can see in the video. I might’ve seen more if I started earlier. Maybe next Saturday.

Weather: start 77 (79% humidity, 70 dew point), mostly cloudy, wind SE 7 mph; finish 83 (64% humidity, 69.3 dew point), mostly cloudy, wind S 10 mph gusts 23 mph. I knew the wind had strengthened when I rode east over Lake Houston and south on Fairlake Lane as the Canyon bike moved with the gusts.
