Del Rio: Not that big (30,000). Which makes the amount of clueless/careless/beligerent drivers a greater percentage of the population. I've had more "incidents" here than I did back in Salt Lake. It's also far and away the WORST rodes I've ever biked on. I imagine roads to be like this after they've been mortared.
San Antonio: I spent 4 months there for PIT...and that was pretty awful, on a "big city" scale. Poor bike infrastructure, very car centered, teeming with motorists who view driving as a form of "survival of the fittest". That was my big "welcome to Texas".
Not to turn this thread into a Texas or any other state bashing thread...and nothing personal intended. I just had to pile onto the previous comment.
Pardon my rude threadjack...we now return you to your regularly scheduled programming.
