RT 66 Day 22-Midpoint

Our first Texas sunset. And we discovered the destination of those giant turbine blades we’ve seen rolling by.

Day 22 was a relatively easy (as much as a 60+ mile ride can be) pedal from Tucumcari, NM to Adrian, TX. While it is nice to leave the hills behind us, we’re going to miss the dramatic scenery of the southwest.

A little western art work at one of the I-40 truck stops. Besides artwork, an impressive car museum was inside.

Welcome to Texas, and central time zone. We’re now into our fourth state of the trip.

Adrian, TX has the distinct honor of the official RT 66 halfway point between Chicago and LA…1,139 miles each way.

The midpoint designation is a selling point in this small town.

Nice, comfortable RV park in Adrian, close enough to I-40 so you never miss the dulcet tones of the big rigs. Amarillo by Morning…
