From: Lost South of Nowhere East of Edan On the Waterfront Far from the Madding Crowd (Biloxi, MS)

Bikes: 1992 Specialized Crossroads Trail

Woke up this morning and no hot water. Had to wash my hair in the sink. Weather a bit cool (60°, wind N at 10mph). Donned my tights and long sleeve jersey, tossed the bike shorts and short sleeve jersey in my panniers and took off. Only had a hand full of cars overtake me the whole way (probably around 4 total), which is unusual. About the time I got to downtown Gulfport, I was feeling a little light-headed, so I stopped at a gas station and bought a Snickers Dark candy bar and told the manager that I needed fuel. Didn't feel like facing W. Railroad the whole route, so I took a side street that runs parallel for about 95% of the way. Didn't bother to track my time, but I know I wasn't tearing up the roads.
