The link to today's route and statistics is found here . Today was a pleasant day for riding, but the humidity is starting to become a factor.  The temperature was 68 F when we left La Grange, and when we arrived in Navasota the temperature was 85 F and the humidity 54%.   Today we were privileged to be welcomed to Navasota by the Mayor of Navasota, Mayor William A. Bert Miller, III and the Executive Director of the Navasota Grimes County Chamber of Commerce, Mr. Johnny McNally.  They came to the Best Western Motel in Navasota to recognize our efforts to cycle across America to benefit military veterans and thereby raise awareness of the 22 suicides a day by veterans and active duty military personnel.   Our team of cyclists are most appreciative of their visit and are honored to meet them.  These two gentlemen made our day!
