Because biking to the gulf of Mexico isn't thrilling enough, we wanted to check off a bucket list item along the way... A CENTURY RIDE! Today we did it! From Natchez, MS to Baton Rouge, LA. Total riding time was 7hrs45min, with many rest-to-rehydrate breaks. To pro racers and tourists, 100miles/day might be a cakewalk. But to us it was a huge accomplishment. Mind you, the heat index was 103 today, and we are carrying 40lbs of gear up 2,853 feet in hills! We went swimming at the hotel to celebrate - felt AMAZING! We are so pumped to be that much closer to the goal, this shaved off a whole day for us so we can end by the end of this weekend! Look at all this unique foliage!! I love all these vines that just cover entire surfaces!!
