Total: 926 miles
It's going to take a loooooog time to peddle across Texas. We started today from deQuincy, Louisiana and found a great breakfast at the Silver Dollar Casino right before we crossed the Texas border. As we started out the door of the motel I found my front tire was flat. The cycling gremlins must have sucked the air out during the night. After about an hour on the road we started to get a light drizzle, then it rained for most of the remaining 70 miles. We averaged a soggy 14 mph and arrived in Kountze, Texas early in the afternoon. Billy Bob (aka Bill, everyone in Texas has two first names) did laundry while I iced my Achilles.I feel the days will blend together as we cross Texas, but I'm sure we'll meet some interesting characters along the way.
Soggy Old Land Cruisers over and out.
