Only Month With This, Threatening Sky But Not A Problem, Week And Month’s Wrap Up
I needed 18 miles to push the week’s total over 200 miles. Starting the ride at 1:52 PM I selected a route that go that far but not leave the area around Kingwood. I call the route “Kingwood Streets” and biked 23.54 miles making the week’s total 205.82 miles. The Lynskey R300 carried me over the streets.
The weather looked threatening with overcast sky and a few dark clouds sprinkled around. My gray sunglasses lens accentuated the dark sky causing me to wonder if I would ride those 18 miles dry or wet. It turned out to be dry though near the end the pavement showed signs of rain before I got there. As I finished the ride standing at my driveway I felt a couple of rain drops but it didn’t go any farther. Weather while I biked: start 83 (74% humidity, 73.9 dew point), overcast, wind E 12 mph. Finish 81 (84% humidity, 75.3 dew point), overcast, wind NE 9 mph.

May is the only month this year that ends on a Sunday which coincides with the end of a week. Recapping the week and month biking activities I biked 27 days out of 31. The Canyon Endurace CF SLX carried me 648.5 miles and the Lynskey R300 291.67 miles of the month’s 940.17 miles. This is the second month at 900+ miles, the other was April.
