Amistad to Montell. 79 miles. 1600 ft climbing
An early morning start at 7:45am. Forecast was for SE winds to gradually build throughout the day so we wanted to get as many miles in before they got strong. We reached Del Rio (about 15 m) straight into the wind without too much problem.
However, Craig’s Achilles began to act up again. I pulled all day into the wind but I felt good so it was fine.
After Del Rio we turned a bit more east for another 30 miles and reached Bracketville. While there at the grocery store we ran into our fellow cyclist John who we met leaving San Diego the first day! He is staying at the same warmshowers host as us tonight. As is our other cyclist friend, Karl!
The afternoon was also hard work into the wind before we turning north the final ten miles with a tailwind.
