May 3 to 13, eight of us went on a 11 day, 10 nights of camping from League City, Texas
578 miles, No rain, 9 flats.
We had a good time.

Pretty nifty. I was wondering how y'all were hauling the big dog around and finally figured out you had a chase car along, too. I've been to Washington on the Brazos and Brazos Bend State Park, been up and down 36 a lot, but it's been ages.

Sharon decided to bring her van and her bike after she got the dog to care for from a friend.
She and the dog did some 10 mile hikes in all the parks.
It was nice as she offered to haul some extra stuff for each of us.
I still started with a 33 lb bike with 56 lbs of gear and a 215 lb motor.

The Cannondale T-1 was made for heavy touring loads.
The front wheel was so steady I could go no hands.
