I went to school at Texas Tech in Lubbock about 50 miles south of there. My brother is a biochemistry professor at Wayland Baptist University in Plainview. I worked summers while in school at the Highway Dept in that area, and also do a little pheasant hunting around there in the CWP lands. I'm pretty familiar with the area. Let's just say there probably won't be a lot of climbs unless the route goes way east or way north. Also, count on a lot of vibration inducing chip sealed farm to market roads, high winds, 100+ temps common even in September, and low humidities. Great people though.

For sister cities, this would be the ugly sister...
