Mariana FL to Tallahassee FL
Thursday Apr 28
Last nights Campground was on a Bayou/Lake. There were fisherman out there when I got up today at 5 AM.
We had a short stint on a Parkway that charged a fee for vehicles, but since that toll gate was unmanned it was free for bicycles. I did keep my head down when going under that thing, so no photo of me. We are staying in a Quality Inn tonight, which just converted to a Red Roof Inn. Each room has A/C, and a shower and toilet, amenities that we have missed for a long time. Todays ride took a toll on most everyone, normal headwinds and dealing with several shoulder-less roads once we approached Tallahassee. Today was probably the second most difficult ride, surpassed only by that day in Texas ending up at Seminole State Park in a dust-storm. And we are now back on Eastern Daylight Savings time. The last riders arrived as we were sitting down to dinner at 6 PM. Mileage was 86 miles at an average speed of 13.5, climbing 2,705 feet and burned 3,354 calories.
