Great video tour! When we did this stretch, we went from Del Rio through San Antonio. I won the Alamo photo contest. Great memories.

Marshall, just curious. How did you know you needed a new cassette?

[@Bubba1979]

The teeth were worn and it kept slipping out of gear. Derailleur adjustments no longer fixed it.

Wonderful tribute to your classmates Marshall. Keep on peddling!

How do you stay on course. Do you have a map or do sighns say where the bike course goes? Does the path go through cities and neighborhoods, or were those detours?

[@Bubba1979]

I used the maps from Adventure Cycling. I carried the paper maps but 95% of the time I used their app “Bicycle Route Navigator”. The route has been travelled by many cyclists who provide feedback to keep it up to date to reflect your safest options and avoid known road outages.
