I also did an MS150 ride this weekend! I was riding for a friend of mine who was diagnosed this year. Had a great time, and met some really cool people! And of course, rode my tail off.

Starting line, about 1200 riders


My (not so) trusty steed. Yes, this is a $180 wal-mart bike. I got a lot of props from people commenting on the touring setup.


Beware of pirates! Arrr!


One of the many rest stops. Snacks, drinks, bathrooms, EMTs, and bike mechanics at every stop.


Percy Quinn State Park, in McComb MS. Much partying going on, everybody was listening to the LSU game.


There were a few tandems, and several recumbents, but I liked this bike a lot! It had a Rholloff 14-speed rear hub, too.


Sunset over the lake, a perfect end to a great first day.


More rest stops on day 2


These guys were towing a trailer with a big stereo on it. They were team "Rum Runners"


Sorry I didn't get more pics of me riding, but next year I'll put a mount on the bicycle.

Here's a friend's pic of me... and yes, I wore the Hawaiian shirt the whole way. Got lots of comments on it!
