There are stretches on 75, 377, and 289 that have high speed limits. These roads ave generous shoulders, though, and the main thing is to be careful getting on. FM121 has fast traffic, but it is sparse, the surface is good, and visibility is good. Most of the other roads are quiet, small town or country roads. A couple of them have condition issues. Not much chip seal, though. Official distance is 64.3 miles.

Oh, my goodness, 121 is my playground, it's so much fun because there are fewer lights and you just go as fast as you wish. There is less imbecilic behavior from the motorons, because the speeds are too fast for them to investigate. Also, since the tollway was put in, the grades have been lessened. Just a blast.
