Day 53: Van Horn, TX to Sierra Blanca, TX

Sat 10/20/07
31.97 mi,
1,407 mi total
896 ft cum
3:34 hrs ride time
8.9 mph avg
96 F Sunny

I-10 the whole way.

Entered Mountain time today.

Today's ride was much like yesterday, a climb out of town followed by a long flat stretch with a subtle climb into the next town. The wind pattern was about the same too, more of a headwind at the start and end of the ride with a fairly strong sidewind in between.

I'm expecting a strong headwind over the next couple of days. NW 15 to 30 with gusts up to 40 mph predicted for Sunday. I'll probably stay in Sierra Blanca an extra day.
