Day 8 of my journey,
Left out of Plainfield In around 7:30 am. Was nice to sleep in a regular bed and take a very hot bath and shower! Day started off very well cool in the morning then warmed up as the day went on.
Map quest is sure taking me down some very back roads. A couple of the roadside went down turned out to be freshly graveled. Was not able to ride so I had to push my bike for a mile or more! Today I also have been chased by a few dogs. None got with in mace range but sure did pedal faster!
The winds this morning was out of the East and shifted to South/ South West. Got in a little over 60 miles today. Should be in Illinois tomorrow. Very happy with my journey so far have ridden over
400 miles!!!!
Staying Brazil In tonight at a Bestwestern have a free night stay with my rewards points.
Another hot shower tonight and a hot bath soak some of this soreness out of me.
Good day to All
God Bless

We loaded up and headed out for Tallahassee. Today was only a 20 mile ride. Weather was great slight wind in our face but nothing to hold us back. We get into town and going up a hill so I was down shifting and my derailleur broke and twisted all up. Unloaded my fear from the back rack so I could take chain off so I could push my bike the last mile and a half. Lucky for me the ace I'm staying is a bike shop. They will fix my bike while I come home. They will have 12 days to get parts in and fixed. Should be no problem. Jerry Reynolds came to pick Trisha up and Trisha took us to lunch at Red Robin.  Had a great burger there. Came back to bike s

Today started off great with Rosa and Joe! Had bagels  cream cheese and coffee! Had a great morning! There dog Augusta Moon or Augie for short was alot of fun and energy.
