Second time biking the Atascocita South – Walden – Huffman route this year. Previous ride was March 7th. I tried to follow the same streets but I missed a little riding 37.4 miles versus 37.5 miles March 7th. Pretty close, maybe I took a few corners shorter today. Stage 16th of the Giro d’Italia delayed my start until 10:23 AM. The weather there was not very good. Here was much better though the sky looked strange and I felt 1 rain drop before the clouds thinned. My Cervelo Caledonia was the bike and it now has over 11,000 miles. In Walden I rode a section of the Atascocita Hike and Bike Trail. A headwind battled me until I made the left turn onto FM2100 from Old Atascocita Road. Then I picked up the pace back to Kingwood finishing at 1:16 PM. Link to the AXS.SRAM.com ride report. Only 159 more miles to reach May’s goal.
