Fabens to Sierra Blanco. 66 miles. 1388 ft climbing.
We left the Fabens fire station around 8:15 and headed east on some long straight flat roads. More pecan groves. We followed the Rio grande most of the morning and saw the border wall a few times.
We were about a mile from our lunch spot when the tire that went flat yesterday flatted again. It was the same hole. The patch that we used didn’t hold. I had bought a new one and installed it. Hoping we are done with flats for a while!
After lunch we rode alongside I10 on a service road until we reached our final destination the town park in Sierra Blanca. It was a long hot climb but we had a nice tailwind. Nice park that allows cyclists to camp! Also has bathrooms and electric to charge our devices.
