Day 73 and 74, August 11 and 12: Rest Days at Tupelo, MS. Distance 12 miles, Rain on Tuesday.

Monday morning we took a bike ride to the bike shop to check out some concerns on my bike. Top Tube checked out OK after adjustment. Also checked bottom bracket and replaced middle chain ring. Rest of the day was spent doing laundry, catching up on blog work and watching the Olympics. Tuesday it rained all day, with some time spent bike cleaning in the afternoon. Tuesday night several of us took a taxi to the Mall and had dinner with some going to a movie. After two days without riding the legs are anxious to get back on the bike.

Late Addition: Jim left today as developments away from our ride has pulled him back to the real world. Jim's pull on Sunday will never be forgotten. Jim had done 3 long distance rides before this one across the US. Please check out his blog: http://pedicabman.blogspot.com/

Jim, I hope to see you at St. Augustine on the 30th.
