Tailwind to Headwind: A Canyon Endurace Journey North
Rode north on my Canyon Endurace CF 7 bike following the Kingwood – SH 242 – Kingwood route. Utilized a light tailwind getting to SH 242 and then my legs struggled to power me back into the headwind. I took a break under TX99 sitting in the shade and enjoying the breeze. I had to tell myself 3 or 4 times to get up and finish the ride. I last rode this route on May 1st though another ride on a different route followed most of the same streets to SH 242 and then continued on SH 242 to Old Houston Road. I biked 37.86 miles cutting the miles I need to reach my goal to 45.9 (goal for June is 908).
Weather: Start 87 degrees, humidity 77%, dew point 78.8, partly cloudy, wind S 6 mph; @ TX99 90 degrees, humidity 63%, partly cloudy, wind W 7 mph; Finish 90 degrees, humidity 65%, dew point 77.1, partly cloudy, wind W 9 mph.
