Second Day on Mountain Bike – August 7th Bike Ride
For my second day of mountain biking I changed up the route somewhat with a little less dirt and mostly on the greenbelt trails.The greenbelt trails in Kingwood are usually concrete and 4 feet wide. Because they are in the woods the trails are not always smooth with tree roots moving the concrete or asphalt (older trails are asphalt) up and down. The short stretch of grassy trail came around 5.85 miles into the ride. No sand like yesterday so I did not load the tires with sand. I rode a little further today at 16.48 miles at an average speed of 12.0 mph and a 20.5 mph max speed.
Again the shade amongst the trees kept the heat at bay even though the temperature range was 84 to 90. Scattered clouds and a light 4 mph breeze were the rest of the environment. Humidity was 72% to 61%.
The trails were not as populated today as yesterday.
