‘Excitement On a Well Beaten Path’ Southern Tier East to West

Langtry TX – Sanderson TX
Sunday May 21, 2023 Jesse’s hospitality is wonderful! He whipped up a coffee and a breakfast burrito for me and the other cyclist that had shown up yesterday!
Hit the road and felt super slow. The gears were super heavy. Had to shift down a lot! I was wondering if I needed a rest day, different food, or what?
At the halfway point, I ran the numbers and found i averaged only 7 miles an hour!
Pulled up the route and checked the elevation… I’d been climbing all day, lol! Even though it did not look like it. Goes to show the pedals never lie.
Sanderson TX is about 650 people and has a few neat old buildings still kicking around. Old school stuff man.
