\n45 Miles – Bicycling On The Wide Open West Texas Plains; Hosted By Kennedy Family In Ackerly, TX – March 9, 2011
\nShocked at the expensive rates from two nights in motels in Artesia, NM and Seminole, TX, I was quite upset.

\nWhy isn’t the Tour de France in America? I mean, besides the obvious fact that the French started it 108 years ago and it takes place over three weeks through roughly 2,000 miles of countryside there. Hear me out.
\nI know, bicycles are \u00e2\u20ac\u0153alternative transportation.\u00e2\u20ac\u009d They are the puerile, pedal-powered playthings of likely unshaven, eccentric malcontents and ne’er-do-wells who refuse to grow up and accept the internal combustion engine. I’m pretty sure I read somewhere that Paul Revere’s Ride was all about protecting…<\/p>\n
