HELLO!

Welcome back. Seven years after my first ride across the United States, I am doing it again.

This blog will document my trek.

Day 30 - Blanco to Lockhart (63.4 miles)

Luck was with us today…after rain projections for last evening and today, the rain held off until 2 miles before the completion of the ride. Then it poured for several hours. Not many pictures today as we worked to finish the ride before it rained. Two excellent food stops today, the first at the Texas Pie Company and the second was barbecue at the famous Kreuz Market. Apparently, Lockhart is the barbecue capital of Texas. As mentioned yesterday, Tim, a rider is getting his ribs checked after falling yesterday. Update: nothing broken, just bruised.

Texas Pie Company

Chester and Jenny from Dallas were visiting the area this weekend. Had a nice discussion.

Chuck, Ruud, Steve, and Bob enjoyed the food stop. It was outstanding!

The town of Kyle, not the most scenic shot.

Great barbecue at Kreuz Market in Lockhart
