Life is funny when 60 miles on a loaded bike becomes an easy day.
I woke up in Fort Davis and got a picture of the courthouse on the way out of town. I reminded me of the beautiful courthouses in Minnesota that I saw while doing check ride's for work 30 years ago . This on was named after Jefferson Davis.
We rode to Alpine, TX where there was a nice town, state University and a fabulous museum on the Big Bend area. It is in the same County, over 100 miles away.
I took a picture of a bike that a fellow rode from Ohio to Texas in the 1880's. I thought it was a good reminder for me if I am tempted to complain about my challenges.
Overall, it was a fine day. I kept thinking how wonderful it was and how lucky I am to be seeing this from the saddle of a bike. I think in a car you never would chose this route, stop were we do and experience the land in the same way.
I have a photo of my rear bike tire. Julie "FedEx ed" me a couple of fresh tires to swap out tonight. I meet the courier and he was a fine fellow with 20 years with the company. I was very happy to see him.
everyday I look forward to your pics and adventurous comments. Keep up the effort, I tip my hat to you. You need to doff your bike helmet for a cowboy hat, PLEASE don't become a "Cowboy" fan. You are one awesome biker!! Have fun.
