Jackson to Demopolis, Alabama

Log trucks are BIG in Alabama, and there are a lot of them. Well guys, I finally got my act together today on the road to Demoposis--98 miles and I WAS OK!!! Liz and Craig, David, Brian and Leigh, DB, Laurie, and Mike (of course), and TCC, all those miles we rode (usually with me hanging on by my fingernails) paid off for me today. We started early again, (I heard roosters crowing) wearing arm warmers. It stayed cloudy and wonderfully cool all day. The road was smooth, with rolling hills and very little traffic until the last 15 miles. I loved it! I am hanging in there with these ladies, and if the roads were flat. . . I met a guy in a store that used to live in Monroe. I was wearing DB's Bike Source jersey, and he asked me if I was from Monroe. Nice guy, worked with mosquito control while there. (Picture on right, near bottom.) They changed our route tomorrow, so all we have to ride is 58 miles. YEA!! That should be like a walk in the park after our last two riding days.
