Today is what it's all about about. I don't know what "it" is but today had it. I actually have a pretty good idea what it is: smooth roads, low traffic, serene riding. If I was Stella I'd be rocking my groove again. Great day of riding through the Kisatchie national Forest. Just gorgeous really, finally saw some fall colors which was great. And almost every mile was on brand new smooth road. Best day ever, more of these please.
The one awkward thing about today was that there were a lot of signs talking about unexploded ordinances and that I was right near a bombing range.... I'm still alive so I guess they weren't bombing but still a little concerning. Perhaps the road is so smooth because it was recently bombed?
Also a town name of Deridder is great but they are missing an opportunity in trying to keep their highways clean. They have signs saying "keep Deridder clean" instead of saying "let's get Deridder of the trash on the highway". Step up your game Deridder. Step it up.
