Day Thirty Two - Zack Attack/Tours by Tonia

Today's ride breaks down into two chapters: Chapter 1- Leaving Louisiana and Chapter 2- Mississippi.

We rode out through the French Quarter and got onto 90 East. We spent most of the morning drafting behind Zack. Thirty five miles into the ride Zack went through his initiation by getting his first flat tire (our only one of the day). Once we crossed the Pearl River, entering Mississippi, we met up with Tonia Miller who rode with us the rest of the day. It was a real treat to have a local guide us through some lovely back roads. She even treated us to lunch (huge muffaletta sandwiches). She got us to the home of Dan and Lee Ann Hunter where we enjoyed their beautiful pool overlooking the bay before being treated to a spectacular meal!

Today's total mileage was 89. It was fun having others to ride with today. The scenery was gorgeous! We have been very impressed by the Mississippi Gulf Coast.

    I'm thinking you will more than double it now.
    Be proud, and ride with the assertion that you are helping many.
