So, a friend and I randomly decided to ride to Austin from Houston (Katy, actually)

We used google maps new bicycling feature. It led us to a couple of dead ends, but we did make it there without dying in one day. All in all nearly 12 hours spent riding. It hurt a lot. It was tons of fun and our respective ladies came and met us there by car with our luggage and more camera gear.
Great ride! I highly suggest it to the folks who like touring. We'll probably do it again soon!
