Marie Antoinette
Feeling crosswise with the tequila Borders and I set out from the cabin about 9 miles down the road from Wimberley and headed north to Dripping Springs. Lovely descent through the hill country across a low water bridge or two and then banged up to Driftwood and then Dripping Springs. Stopped at the cemetery and contemplated the benefits of loops versus out-and-backs. The 14 miles to Wimberley was against a stiff headwind and very hilly with lots of long bits in the 6-8% range. Stopped in Wimberley for water and ice cream! The return via 3237 should have been nice with an excllent 15% climb just outside of town - but then some fluent assholes displayed that friendly Tejas spirit and its all we can do to fend off big truck traffic - yee haw! Lucky for us we can cool off in a swank Hill Country pool drinking cervazas fria and lolligaggin with my way cool niece in the shade of cedars and tall grass - Marie Marie Antoinette!
