The motorcycle ride today took us from San Antonio to Corpus Christy, Texas along Interstate 37. The southern route provided us a very please ride after leaving San Antonio. The road was generally straight through rural country that was very green and lush this time of year. The temperature was in the low 90s and sunny with above average humidity. I’m use to the low humidity of the high dessert in New Mexico, so the humid temperatures remind me of the importance of drinking plenty of water or gator aid.
The route was about 160 miles. We decided to stay at the Emerald Bay Hotel. The Emrald was built in 1965 and allowed us the opportunity to stay on the beach and enjoy the sunrise and sunsets during our two night stay.
I-37 posted a 75 miles per hour speed limit the majority of the way between San Antonio and Corpus Christy. The route is lightly traveled and a nice ride for a motorcyclist of any level of experience.
A year ago a hurricane hit the Houston area. Corpus Christy was not directly hit, however one can still see the effects of the strong winds from that hurricane.
