Bicycle ride November 21

We are anticipating fine weather for the bicycle ride tomorrow, November 21, at South Padre Island. 
Temperatures are forecast to be in the low 60's when we depart Sandpipers at 9:00 a.m. Tuesday morning. 
On the Island, the high temperature will be around 80 with winds 10 to 15 MPH from the South.  That means a little headwind on our way to Isla Blanca County Park at the southern tip of South Padre Island.  It also means a friendly tailwind for our return to the Convention Center.  We will stop during the ride to eat lunch at Blackbeard's Restaurant.

We make a brief rest stop at the State Travel Center at the junction of US 83/I-2 and US 77/I-69E.  We normally arrive at the Convention Center between 10:30 and 11:00 a.m.  If traveling independently, we advise you to be very conscious of the speed limits along Hwy 100 to South Padre Island.  Strict adherence to the speed limit will save you money and time.

Our ride usually ends about 1:30 or 2:00 p.m. after our lunch. There are many attractions to see following the ride.  You are welcome to stay and enjoy South Padre Island and Port Isabel.  We return to Sandpipers independently.

Bicycle rides are led by Tom and Louise Butler, Lot 44.
