Today we left Fort Stockton, Texas and traveled 312 miles along I-10 to San Antonio, Texas on the second day of our trip. We had a perfect day to ride. It was overcast with light winds at the beginning of the day and about an hour west of San Antonio the sun appeared, the temperatures rose, and the wind kicked up.
Today was another perfect day for the riders who like to push the throttle. After leaving Fort Stockton it wasn’t until Ozono, Texas before seeing a gas station. The 82 mile stretch included good views of buttes some with large wind turbine farms. The road was lined with large yuccas and brush which were eventually replaced with trees as we traveled closer to San Antonio.
About 60 miles west of San Antonio we began to see more traffic and green grass along the side of the road and in the median. The grass was interspersed with wild flowers making the ride a beautiful pallet of colors.
This route is not marked as a scenic route in the Harley Davidson Touring Book, but it will not disappoint any type of rider.
