Revisited Atascocita South – Walden – Huffman
Another bike ride on a route I haven’t been on for almost a month. I guess it hasn’t come up in my mind to ride it sooner. Today’s bike ride went south on the Atascocita South – Walden – Huffman route. The route route goes south before turning east to go over Lake Houston and circle Huffman. Starting at 9:26 AM pedaling my Canyon Endurace bike I changed the route to avoid the traffic at Kingwood Park High School due to their later start time on Thursday. This added a little more distance compared to the 36.6 average distance for the previous 5 rides in 2023 as I rode 37.20 miles today. The week totals 161.57 miles, a good position to hit 200+ miles and make up for falling short of 200 miles last week. My legs felt good today powering along the ride. I aired the tires up to 80 psi before the ride and the Canyon seemed to roll easier. Hot weather was back for another shot but the wind wasn’t gusting like yesterday. Weather for my bike ride: Start 84 degrees, 79% humidity, dew point 76.6, a few clouds, wind E 6 mph; Finish 92 degrees, 62% humidity, dew point 76.8, partly cloudy, wind E 8 mph. I finished at 12:30 PM.
