Absolutely the opposite of mouthing off. He is extremely courteous with the officers he encounters.
He's been stopped by state troopers on the same stretch and not had a problem (the trooper even encouraged to take a route that put him on the road in question at an earlier point that would cut a rougher section out of his ride). It's the Ennis police that seem to have a problem with his riding.
I don't know about the state of the shoulder on that stretch, but here in TX they are highly variable, often strewn with glass and debris, and tend to disappear with some frequency.
