Almost out of Texas, Cleveland to Silsbee, TX

64 miles, 500' of elevation gain, 82 degrees
  Flat ride along timber country was today's ride. Nothing remarkable about the ride. The road continues to be quite excellent and well maintained with a wide shoulder. With 5 of us riding as a team, it was a quick ride in and arrived by 12:30 and had lunch across from our hotel. Good to have a new state to look forward to tomorrow and will have our new state party.
  There is a lot of logging in this part of Texas but the truck drivers were very respectful and gave a wide berth. Although you heard dogs barking, I did not have any chasing us. You can almost see the hint of a cultural change happening.

  1. It doesn't sound like an exciting day, but a pleasant one nonetheless. I can't wait to see what you think of Louisiana. Enjoy the Margaritas.
