Leg 18 - Huntsville, Tx to Bastrop, Tx


Photo is a little tribute to our Texas A&M friends. Campus was hopping today. A good ride thru 68 miles today and my visit to Bryan/College Station. Shortly after, roads gave up all shoulders for the next 60 miles and we opted not to bike them - didn't want to risk another accident this close to home. We've decided to brave Rt71 into Austin tomorrow - its a 4 lane highway with more traffic, but we should be able to get an early start and avoid much it. It will be about 30-35 miles into Austin and downtown and should be there by 10-11am. Strange to be in a motel this close to home.

Well, Homestretch at last. Long journey - but we know you will consider this a major accomplishment and rightly so.

Brooke is to be commended for her role, too, as we know her contributions over the second half of the journey were a big help.

Give the Guv our best!!!!
