Georgetown, SC to Conway, SC - 54 Miles

Sunny but cooler today, low 60s when we started out. However we did have some wind today - crosswind/headwind and lots and lots of traffic.

The stats: average speed 12.2 MPH; max 19 MPH; 52.2 total miles; and 4 hours 15 minutes riding time.

Logging trucks, semis, speeding cars and sections of bumpy roads.  The day began on a busy 2 lane highway, we had a short stretch on a less busy road and the second half was a super busy 2 lane road.  Scariest ride ever.

Breakfast at the motel - 2 boxes of Cheerios, an orange and coffee


Off making peanut butter sandwich 


Kathleen, Fran, Valerie and Linda

Mexican night, taco salad - chicken, rice and beans, salad, chips, guacamole
