Yesterday was my first day of riding and Mother Nature could not have served me a better day to start my pilgrimage.   For the most part the ride was uneventful, which is good. An eventful ride usually means something breaks or weather presents itself as an irritant.
Since I was coming to camp out with the Dim Lit DayLight guys at their pad in Austin, I opted not to go thru Fredericksburg, Luckenbach and Bandera, which offers better riding roads, but didn’t fit into my route. Instead I traded good riding roads for good quality time with some very talented musicians. A great trade if you agree that the fruit of life is in relationships!
I would have to say probably the highlight of the riding yesterday, though, was Grape Creek road outside San Angelo. Its long waning curves and very little traffic offer an exhilarating ride. I cranked up the iTunes with some rock-n-roll and let ‘er rip. Great fun if you’re a motorcycle enthusiast!
Tomorrow I start out to make the rest of my journey to Beaumont. I am not sure yet how I am going to route the trip, but look for a post on Sunday to read more about my adventures….
