And the ribbing starts -

My friend Dale, who made an extraordinarily generous donation this year, has informed me that he expects me to do the whole ride in one day now.  I counter-offered 30 minutes on a stationary bike in the gym today, with the 80 mile ride tomorrow, and he agreed to consider this if I upped it to 45 minutes.

Dale and I used to ride together at first light every weekend, and his normal pre-ride preparation was a bottle of red wine and a Cuban cigar.  He very kindly offered to bring a few choice vintages over to my house tonight to get me in top form, but I elected to pass.  Still, with Obama making overtures to Castro, perhaps I should re-consider?

This isn't quite right but it's close. 9.5 miles, about 40 minutes.

10 miles of safe, paved cycling bliss - except for all the foot traffic

45 miles through very pretty Texas countryside. Looks benign but there's a very hilly section at mile 35.

It's on the Katy prairie - flat, flat, flat
