In Gulf Shores, AL tonight.






































 It took about 30 minutes to exit Mississippi this morning. We dodged the rain until our last 30 minutes of the ride today. Made the 9:30am ferry across Mobile Bay. It costs $12 to take a tandem bike across in case you need to know that some time. The ferry saves us close to 70 miles. Lots of damage still in the gulf shore beach area. Rode a nice bike trail for several miles. Contemplating a trip to Lambert’s for dinner and a visit to Buccee’s.

    First I've heard of Buccee's so I googled. Sounds fun. Glad you're out of the monotony of the desert. Or dessert?

Amy’s Birthday Ride!

 We celebrated Amy’s last birthday in her 40’s by riding 58 miles. Tallahassee is behind us and we are staying in a cabin in Madison, FL. Passed a big alligator on the side of the road in our last 10 miles. Rode through Ray Charles birthplace. Planning a relaxing afternoon. Details of our Thursday 10AM finish at St Augustine beach are posted in a picture above. We will pull into the parking area by the fishing pier.  Upon arrival and we will take the finish picture at the Atlantic Ocean. If you plan to be there please let us know in the comments. Everyone in attendance will get a plaque, t-shirt or handshake.

Riding day 2 in the books.

 Better day today. Steep descents on our ride out of the mountains. Crazy high winds tried to blow us off the mountain. Rode through the desert with amazing tailwinds. The sun and heat are brutal. We were 50’yards from the border. Felt 100% better today. You almost can’t drink enough water here.
