Thought I should start out with some granddaughter love – Miya is growing well at just over one month old and parents are settling in to their new roles.
Today’s ride was not one to introduce your friends to the magnificence of a TransAm cycle! Other than a few nice miles on some country TX roads, the majority of routes had a lot of speedy traffic with some to no shoulder. At least the winds were mostly favorable (S/SE) and the temps comfortable. The good thing was the left wrist brace I added to my kit today; wrist didn’t hurt all day even with a lot of chip seal surfaces, and I’m “marked safe” and in a 3 star 😊 motel. 71.5 miles 2572’ (getting some rollers today).
Forest Service sign marked fire danger as “high”.
Lots of fast frequent traffic including big trucks.
TX wildflowers in bloom
including the state flower, bluebonnet
