This route takes you through the towns of Warrenton and Round Top which are known for weekend antique flea markets. Thank goodness it is a weekday, as I hear the traffic is very busy on spring and fall weekends. You could see the infrastructure for all the activities and everything was closed even the eateries.

I got up to rain fly on. Mike and I were prepared to do this as we knew there were morning storms in forecast. We left fly off as it was a warm and muggy night. I checked the radar on smartphone and saw lots of storms coming our way. I decided to take up camp now rather later. Mike stayed in bed as he had short 25 mile day planned to Navasota and a hotel reservation. I went a couple of hundreds over to a empty group pavilion with roof as it started to rain harder. There was Harley group rally planned for the weekend. There was a food vendor near battling the elements. The storm blew and at least 50 mph. outflow winds and driving rain. I was even getting a little mist blowing through the covered pavilion. As the storm subdued, the food vendor cooked up some sausage gravy and biscuits plus coffee. I texted Mike to let him know. He was afraid to leave the tent as it may blow away. He finally pulled camp and joined me for breakfast. Sure is nice for a biker to have hot breakfast without having to ride the bike in search of food.

As a practical thinker, I went back to sleep. I finally started ride at 0950. There were good bike lanes leaving this college town. I made a quick stop at HEB for groceries before heading into the rural areas. My goal today was only 41 miles to Richards, TX and cyclist only camp. Temps were 75F starting warming to 87 with sunny sky and light south winds. Perfect for porch sitting but a bit toasty on a loaded tour bike. I took plenty of water and shade breaks even though I was feeling strong and the bike was working well. I had changed my gear ratio to 11-32 cassette(the 9 rear sprocket thingy for non bikers) which made pedaling up hills easier for me and you know by reading my blog that I needed the help.
