I plan on doing this next May when it's not too terribly hot in the daytime and not cold at night. Narrowed it down to 2 routes-Houston to Ft Stockton TX and back, or Houston to Bristow OK and back. Here are the advantages I feel are on each route. Ft Stockton: less traffic west of San Antonio, less rain and humidity, San Antonio is probably easier to get through than Dallas. Bristow: I'm very familiar with the route(haven't been west of San Antonio in 20 years), since it's less rural there's probably less chance of wildlife crossing the interstate, lower speed limits(I ride a 320cc Yamaha R3 and don't want to run it faster than 70 or 75mph). On the west part of the S. Antonio route speed limits are 80 and I think even 85 in some spots. Which do you think is the better route for me.
