Rider Mag does Hwy 281

Just got it in the mail.  They do the whole thing from Canada to Brownsville.

I would guess many here in the center of America have been on some long sections of that road.

They do the whole thing...

That's really impressive.  The road, itself, is the opposite of challenging, but it does go through a lot of country that is largely unchanged from what it was a hundred years ago so it would have been an interesting ride even without those turns that might get in the way of the scenery.

Having lived in Manitoba, Minnesota, Missouri, Texas and a few other places nearby, and having relatives all over the west in both countries, I've probably been on more than half of 281 at some time over the past 40 years. It is rather like a time tunnel to the days when prairie people gathered in the Grange Hall for socials, held bake sales on the lawn of the county courthouse, and bought hardware from a neighbor, drugs from a place with a soda fountain, and appliances from the Sears or Ward's catalogs.
