This week’s bike rides have been in some different places. From Kingwood to Galveston and points in between. Today to end the week I rode my Lynskey Helix bike on Kingwood streets through several of the Kingwood villages, Woodridge Forest, Forest Cove, and the San Jacinto Bayou Greenway starting at 1:40 PM after getting home from church. Today I wasn’t sure how many miles I would ride at the start but when I finished at 3:15 PM I rode 20.66 miles. The week’s total came in at 239.7 miles, not near the miles from the previous week but still a nice total. Now I’ve ridden Kingwood streets 20 times this year, getting close to the Atascocita – Walden – Huffman route number. I rode each day and both bikes saw action. I am getting closer to my 720 mile goal for September with 605 miles to date.

The highlight day was biking in Galveston with different scenery from the rides around northeast Harris County and Montgomery County. I averaged 34.24 miles per day. I rode the Spring Creek Greenway which I like to do at least once per month. I found out on today’s ride that the concrete streets around the demolished townhomes in Forest Cove are also being removed causing me to backtrack to Hamblen Road.
