Some Grass Farms, Some Unopened Lanes, More Miles Than Expected
Good start for the week of biking. I left home at 9:41 AM riding my Canyon Endurace bike and finished at 1:09 PM after riding 43.12 miles. I rode my ” Stroker Road – Huffman” route. This was the first time in 2021 on this route though I rode the similar “Kingwood – Stroker Road – Kingwood” route twice. That route does not go through Huffman which I did today. I utilized the unopened sections of FM 2100 to ride north from Stroker Road to just south of the railroad tracks in Huffman. With these miles I am getting closer to my 700 mile goal for September. I only need 159.7 more miles.
The video includes several clips showing the status of the FM 2100 unopened lanes.
Today and tomorrow will be hot days before a front arrives late Tuesday or early Wednesday lowering the overnight lows into the 60’s or 50’s. Break out the winter biking gear. Weather summary for the ride: start 84 (81% humidity, 77 dew point), a few clouds, wind SW 6 mph; finish 90 (65% humidity, 76 dew point), partly cloudy, wind SE 10 mph. The wind felt stronger when it was a headwind and weaker when a tailwind.
I claimed the Local Legend on 2100 N bound segment according to Strava with 2 rides.
