There was a guy on a bike near me in the Memphis area a couple of weeks ago who was passed very closely by an SUV, and then shortly after he caught up with them and apparently had some sort of negative interaction with them. Someone in the SUV proceeded to open fire on him. Luckily he got away with only very slight injuries (really sucky shot that guy was, perhaps?). Either way the guy got off REALLY lucky.
Memphis...come for the ribs, leave before the shooting. My very limited experience with Memphis has been flying in/out of the airport. On the way back, I had time to kill so I found Central BBQ listed on a few websites as a good place to eat. While the destination was great, the route was pretty sketch.
