Day 31, 115 miles (1885). Tailwinds today allowed me to put a big chunk of West Texas behind me. The route also had some climbing. I started at Langtry before the sun was up (it was cold, packing gear before sunup) at an elevation of 1500 ft and ended the day at 4000 ft at Marathon TX. I met one cyclist today, a rather sturdy individual who, if I got his story straight, left southern Montana in January and is headed to Key West. Then on to Venezula by freighter. I gave him a map for the Southern Tier and left him struggling into a headwind as I departed into my glorious tailwind.
