Pretty riding day, scenery changed to grassland with closer mountains and winding roads. While “only 55 miles”, a good headwind for 20 miles challenged us. Getting good pace line practice. Nice snack in Alpine and lunch in Marathon. Tomorrow is a non riding day, and we’re driving to Big Bend National Park. I am looking forward to that!
Sunrise this morning, I thought the airstream camper and wind vane represent Texas.

Welcome to Marathon
Never get tired of wind vane pictures…
