Unicorn successfully brought all the way home. In the end, no virgins were sacrificed. Texarkana to Austin: ~7 hours with a stop at Czech Stop in West, TX. The countryside while considerably more familiar is much less interesting. Though the bridges over Lake Ray Hubbard were a nice surprise. I didn't think there was any surface water left in Texas.
I'm also happy to report that my road bike fits in the back with plenty of room to spare. I was a bit worried that after all of this, that I'd still be taking the front wheel off at the very least. There's probably room for 2 with strategic stacking/packing.
Now I need to get the Texas state inspection, proper insurance, and the front license plate hung. It has Pennsylvania inspection now, but a) the lousy sticker is peeling off from the heat, and b) I have 3 days to get it done, anyway. Insurance on the Subaru covers 5 days from pick up, so I've got two days left on that. I have the front license bracket and screws, but I'm not going to drill the front bumper myself. So, tomorrow morning, I'll head over to State Farm and to the local Toyota dealer. Hopefully the latter will want my business.
