I'd like to have done that, but life and work got in the way.

Yeah, it has a way of doing that.
I was not able to take an October trip last year due to work.

I've been stuck on 16 for two months but I have a plan to knock out Navasota, Brenham, Welcome, Bastrop, etc. one Saturday in July.
You what they say about plans...

Do it the on the 18th and go to the gun show in Navasota. It is about a $/min show.

0 no more! As of last weekend I got past 25.
2 weekends ago, Mo told me he'd take my place for the class that weekend and made me go do tour stops. I rode to Corpus and back that Saturday collecting 7 stops and a loop up near Waco and back to get 7 more that Sunday. Last weekend I took off after work Friday and got East Texas knocked out and cleared out The Metroplex Saturday for a dozen more.
Evidently I was waiting for it to get really hot before I started. It's been 100+ each day.
Got a trip in a couple of weekends planned to get Panhandle stops. We'll see how much I can do in a weekend.
Yea, I'm running with the opposite strategy here. Another month before I can start finishing it up.

Wow, I barely want to ride to and from work at 7a/7p in this heat, and you are doing the hours long rides for the tour. I was hot in April doing some of mine (I think I saw 98°F on my display on day), can't imagine doing it now.

Looks like I'll pickup #34 in Port Author tomorrow on my way to Lake Charles.

Be happy you got your new seat, the roads around there suck.

4.5 hours in the saddle today. No butt pain. Some discomfort, but after 3 hours on the stock seat, with air and gel cushions I would be hurting very bad. Happy with the new seat.
