We woke up to a warm, humid day. Sheila had to leave for work at 6:00 am, we had said our farewells last night. We picked up Hwy 105 and headed towards Montgomery. We were going to stop at the Lake Conroe Cycling store so that I could replace a couple of inner-tubes. Cindy is also a warmshowers host and is a lovely lady. She took us for lunch and we spent almost 2 hours chatting to her.

By the time we got back on the road the wind had picked up and it wasn’t in our favour! Never the less it was a good ride.

We are in Texas cattle country, where the ranches are big and the entrances are bigger.

As we came into Navasota this crazy dog ran across four-lanes of traffic to chase us. I would never normally wish a dog any harm, but my first thought was I hope the stupid animal gets hit by a car. It almost got schmucked by a transport, but he ran back across the road and escaped injury.

The temperature dropped from a high of 23 degrees C to a low of -3 C at 10:00 pm – (75 (F) to 26 (F), brrr. Thank goodness for motels.
