For all those towns he didn't even cover a quarter of Texas.  Flower watching?  The spring flowers are just beautiful this year in the Hill Country.

Nice ride planned for next weekend ground zero Knoxville, Tennessee. If you can't make this one keep the Memorial Day weekend in mind it will be out of Knoxville, Tennessee as well.

Joe,
I'm working in San Antonio at the Toyota facility.  Been on a crazy night shift schedule for the last two weeks plus this week. May be back on days by that time and a more stable schedule.

Leaving Saturday morning flying to Washington State for a long weekend.  I have my cancer follow up appointment with my Oncologist Monday morning in Wenatchee and then back to San Antonio for some more crazy shift work.

I'll keep Memorial Day weekend open for now.  Schedule will define whether I make it to Knoxville.  Just so you know, since Nov 19, 2009 to April 5, 2010 I did 18,535 miles of riding. 

You ought to think about planning a ride to Texas next year if the water keeps coming.  The flowers in the Hill Country has just been awesome, and I'm sure there are numerous VRCC riders who would enjoy showing you some of the roads here as well as the flowers.

Take care Joe.
