We got up and had some breakfast and picked up a bit. Grant had checked our chains last night and told us they needed replaced, I never realized how much a chain can stretch, so we hit the shop in the morning and he hooked us up. We hit the road about 930 and made plainview by lunch and stopped at
The Nu-griddle cafe which was real cheap, good, and decorated with old cowboy stuff (why didn't I take a pic?). We finished the day in Tulia Texas at a 40 dollar motel that should be atleast 60. In total we road 71 miles today.
Our next place to stay is in guyman ok which will be 2 or 3 days.
My Uncle Charlie and I will be biking across the southern USA Starting March 10th. Once reaching CA Charlie will stop but I will then continue north and back across the north. Below is a map that shows an idea of what our route will be, as we are planning it on the road. The map will have uploads of our track as we go. We will greatly appreciate any place to stay and any suggestions of places to visit. Thank you, Austin Fox
