Once we were on the road again, it seemed as though we just could not get off. We traveled over the Tennessee River for the third time and continued on through Alabama. Our mid-day hunger was appeased by tacos from the Mexican restaurant located adjacent to the gas station at which we had stopped. Despite the concern about where the remnants of those tacos might end up/ come out... we (mostly Paul and Austin) ate heartily.
Continuing on the road and up the exhausting hills, our wonderful and ingenious chase-car driver (Kelly's mom Cheryl) saved the day. As our legs grew weary, she refused to let our spirits damper- driving behind us, blaring tunes from "The Temptations" and other mo-town jams.
We finished off the day reaching Birmingham with a total of 101 miles under our belts, more than Paul or I had ever ridden!
