The theme today was HILLS, HILLS, HILLS. All Day long. Hills are really totally different than mountains. Today was my first test of hills all day. It is different physically, mentally, and in how one uses the bike. I made it through, but my legs are tired and I am beat. It was also 64 miles, so that takes it out of me also. All in all it was a good day. just a challenge. What I also have discovered is that if I go 45 - 55 miles in a day I seem to handle it pretty well. More than that and I struggle. Today was more than that. We did have trees, and more trees, which I appreciated. But again. More wildlife, so more roadkill.
One skunk, one raccoon, two armadillo's(again), a few deer-----but I also saw a nice live doe. I am hoping for more of the live critters.
I had an interesting start to the day. My waffle was in the shape of the state of Texas. At least it was big, so I got my money's worth. Tonight I am in Fredericksburg, Texas. Tomorrow I am not sure. I probably need a shorter day tomorrow. We will see how I feel in the morning. Doing well. Til later.
