Topic: Southern Tier – Austin to New Orleans
kenw | forums.adventurecycling.org
Greetings. I biked from San Diego to Austin a few years ago (and it was fantastic) and I may have a week to ten days in March to do Austin to New Orleans. Understood the scenery and hills will be more modest. Any thoughts on what this stretch is like? Thanks. Logged Offline John Nettles

We’ve built in these rest days into our schedule because we don’t need to be in New Orleans until 2/24 to meet our son.
And we have a year on the road, so no crazy hard end dates.
It rained a lot this morning but …
STN Coffee Ride and extra Sunday therapy… Pasadena, Texas

One flat, one bike change, and getting after it to catch the group at mid-point. Then, the rain on the therapy miles with two crazy near-misses due to very slick road paint. Luckily, it was the rear tire that slid out both times, or else i would have been eating pavement. Good times…
