Goal for July in the Book Bike Ride
The goal for today’s bike was to ride at least 14.3 miles to put me at my 800 mile goal for July. I rode the “New Caney – Tavola – Valley Ranch” route and when I made the turn into Tavola my Elemnt computer showed 14.3 miles. Mission accomplished. The whole ride totaled 34.92 miles and the month is at 820.66 miles. To mark the moment I stopped and took these pictures.
Now I can add on to the month’s total going forward.
Weather during the bike ride: start 85 (64% humidity), a few clouds, wind W 9 mph. Finish 94 (42% humidity), a few clouds, wind 7 mph. 800 mile goal reached.
Ride started at 9:39 am and finished at 12:14 pm.
One stop at the Stripes on FM 1314 for ice and water and then back on the Canyon. Just before I arrived at Stripes a lady cyclist passed going north on Valley Ranch Parkway and we exchanged hello.
I decided to ride by the house where I had the dog chase earlier and the dog wasn’t outside. Now I can ride by there but be attentive.
Overall average speed was up 14.5 mph for most of the ride until Kings Manor and entering back into Kingwood.
No bike ride on Saturday, have another activity with my wife and relatives. Probably back biking on Monday.
