Celebrating MY 1,049th MILE TODAY!!!!


Today was a short ride, 50 miles from Bracketville to Camp Wood, Texas.  It was a day that put me over 1,000 miles of cycling so far.  One of the highlights on our cue sheet was ¨when we cross the Nueces River at mile 45 JUMP IN!!  Believe me that is what we did.  The water was ice cold and swirling, just like a whirlpool and it felt wonderful...ahhhhhhhh.  The first photo is purple Texas wild flowers, they were beautiful.

    Hi JoAnn,

    It is fun to read about your cycling adventures. I am happy to hear that you are making progress. I visited Las Cruces back in the 70's. It was a long road trip (by car). I wish that you had more time to visit Carlsbad Caverns, Santa Fe, White Sands, Juarez etc. I guess it isn't recommended that you visit border towns in Mexico these days. If I was on this bike trip, I'd be sleeping it off on my days off!

    I cut back my spinning at the Y from 5 to 3 days. I swam three 200's in a swim meet this month, but it seems incomparable to what you are doing.

    Rebecca
