Amarillo TX to Sulphur OK, 30th June (Day 18)

Today we set off to meet the others who were travelling up from Lubbock. Northern Texas and Southern Oklahoma are flat ad not very exciting. It was just lots of farmland. We stopped for a bite to eat at the only cafe in Hollis and it was good mum and pop food mashed potatoes, green beans and pork. A welcome change from burgers and rabbit food.

Most of the way the road looked like this



Some of it looked like this.




We arrived in Sulphur just before the rest of the group. They had had a hard few days catching the tail end of Hurricane Alex and covering two hundred odd more miles than us. I did beer run to Wal-Marts then started blogging I missed the agreed meal time (7:30) because I was catching up on the blog and when I went out half an hour later there were 7 or 8 lads admiring the bikes so I stayed out there chatting with them for an hour or so then did some more photo sorting.


Some of the guys went to Little Niagara a few miles down the road where the local springs are but I decided to give it a miss. My ankle is still giving some pain so I try to minimise extra excursions

After that it was time for an early night.
