Hotter'N Hell 100

I'm off to Denver via Wichita Falls, Texas, where I'll take part in tomorrow's Hotter'N Hell 100 mile endurance bike race. Nothing like spending six hours under the scorching Texas sun with 11,000 others. Six of us from Texarkana are taking part, and we're actually staying in Gainesville, Texas tonight, which is 85 miles down US 82 from the race's start. They're forecasting a high of 95, which will be downright pleasant compared to last year's 108 degree inferno. Here we are (right) finishing up our final ride last night on the Texas-side.
