Compared to last year, the MS150 weather was fantastic. This was the first time I got tail wind and no rain, it could not be better. This year the only preparation I did was cycling to work...... a lot. I clocked in 1,600 kilometers (around 1,000 miles), but only in short distances, 30k a per day. Due to the Calgary winter I only got 2-3 rides in around 60k, however it looks like that really worked..
I mostly road alone and decided not to stop at too many rest stops apart from lunch. I had to lend my pump to someone stranded at the roadside. Turned out to be a pinhole leak which could be dealt with at next rest stop. I felt pretty good, the road bike was like a feather as all my preparation was done on a heavier MTB loaded with work stuff, much heavier than my trusted road bike.
All in all a nice day on Texas roads.
