I didn't expect he'd be stopping to chat with people while trying to make this trip. Not to mention that if he hadn't stopped for food earlier, he'd be right in rush hour in Houston. I hated "normal" Houston traffic when I visited, can't imagine rush hour down there (or maybe I just don't want to).

hes def a savy enough rider to know to avoid any big cities durring rush hour and plan his trip accordingly, so it sounds like he made the right move stoping in beaumont then going through houston later. As a vet of NYC rush hours I can def understand that. look slike he should make good time to kernville get a decent amt of rest then be back at it bright and early tomorrow.

He should be there right now

It also looks like a smart swing away from san antonio by taking 5 miles worth of back roads and avoiding the city all together
