Confirmed My Suspicions
I tweaked today’s bike route a little adding some side streets and taking a side trip on Farmingham Road to check out a store. That made the ride about 3 miles longer than usual. The bike ride began at 8:57 AM and finished at 11:43 AM. The route name is “Atascocita – Walden – Huffman” going south and east biking 36.37 miles riding my Cervelo Caledonia bike. In addition to the Farmingham Road side trip when I got to FM 2100 I rode south to Spanish Cove Drive and made a u-turn back to the north. I don’t usually do that. This ride raised my June total to 922.43 miles. So far in 2022 I biked this route 14 times and today was the most miles. Today was the earliest start time by 2 minutes.
There is a chance rain will come on Wednesday, Thursday and Friday but today was sunny but mostly cloudy. The temperature didn’t get out of the 80’s by the time I finished and the humidity was low for the time of year. Weather conditions: start 80 (humidity 69%, dew point 69), mostly cloudy, wind NE 10 mph; finish 89 (humidity 54%, dew point 70), mostly cloudy, wind NE 7 mph.
The video details the side trip on Farmingham Road and the ride through the road construction on FM 1960. Both confirmed my earlier thoughts. I also recorded a Strava top result on Farmingham Road: 3rd fastest time on Home Stretch (2:18)
