March 12, 2017. Van Horn Texas to Marfa Texas 75 miles and 1103 miles from the Pacific. I rode with Phil (Maine),John (Vermont) and Michael (NYC) all day. We kept telling each other we could make it, but there were no services for 75 miles. We loaded up on food and water before leaving town this morning. It was hot, up hill, and a stiff wind in our face. Kind of took the fun out of the ride. Not the best of conditions but i am grateful to have company.
I knew I would have days with a headwinds, hills, and rough roads. I just didn’t think they would happen at the same time. It was just one of those days that it’s best to forget. Tomorrow will be better because I get to start all over. I hope you get to start every day as a new beginning. Cheers, one tired Freebird ?
