This was my longest ride of the year which ended the most mileage in a week at 81.3 miles. All-in-all, it was a good ride. The weather was about perfect (except for the humidity) and the scenery was nice. Part of the ride was along a portion of the famed Camino Real of Texas up to the small town of Douglass. I stopped there for a cold drink and a Snickers bar and then headed south around Lake Nacogdoches before turning south on FM 2782 to Texas Highway 7 back to town. It was a long ride, hilly and it definitely whooped my butt.
I decided not video today's ride but did take several pictures.

As I took a break at the top of a good-sized hill, some deer came out of the woods near the road. This is the last buck from the group. |
