A Little Trepidation. Spring Creek Greenway + San Jacinto Bayou Greenway
I started the bike ride with a little trepidation after yesterday’s crash. As I pedaled my right knee road rash was stiff but after a few miles I didn’t notice it anymore. Same with my right shoulder. I planned earlier in the week to ride the Spring Creek Greenway today and it was a good choice with no traffic and wide trails. I rolled away at 9:51 AM on my Canyon Endurace CF 7 bike. I wasn’t sure how far I would ride on the greenway but I ended up going to John Pundt Park and then returning back to the US59 trail head. There weren’t many people on the greenway but a few cyclists passed me in both directions. Maybe a weekday and possibly high heat kept people away. After completing the greenway I rode the San Jacinto Bayou Greenway back to Kingwood. The greenways showed fallen trees from Hurricane Beryl but the trails were cleared. I finished at 2:00 PM with the heat coming on. This was the second ride to John Pundt Park this year. The 42.44 miles made up some of the shortfall from yesterday’s abbreviated ride. I’m within 20 miles of the pace needed to reach the 904 mile goal for August.
