This was one of the rides that I had most anticipated. I had always wanted to visit Marfa, a town of artists and ranchers supposedly living in cosmic harmony in West Texas. We are planning a ride out this evening to view the Marfa lights. They and the town have been featured recently on 60 Minutes and in the NYTimes.
The ride itself was an uneventful extended slight uphill from the beginning and ending with a downhill into Marfa and a DQ as a reward. The wind worked for us today. We had a nice homemade lunch in Valentine at their library, saw some antelope at a distance and were stopped and reprimanded by an over zealous deputy sherif. He will be having a little chit-chat this evening with Bubba, who just happens to have been a St Louis police officer .
