Southern Transcon Georgia Day 2

Today was one of those days where you just rode to get from point A to point B (in our case, Cordele GA to Metter GA).  Scenery at least for the first 70 miles was largely unexciting.  Instead, our attention was focused on staying safe on US 280, as there was a steady amount of large truck traffic on the two lane road.  Some sections had no shoulder, and a very rough rumble strip along the fog line.

We once again faced 10-15 mph headwinds all day, which kept our speed down.  Jack and I finished a little before 6 pm.  Tomorrow is the final day of this tour, when the group will ride through Savannah to Tybee Island.

Retta and I finished the day by walking over to Paul's Pondhouse Seafood & Steak for a great meal, and fellowship with Karl and Martha who are crewing on this tour.
