This blog site documents my solo cross country bicycle adventure that goes from San Diego California to St. Augustine Florida - 3,200 miles. The trip is planned from November 21st until January 5th. The goal is to ride 80 miles per day for 40 days with 2 days of transport and 2 days for rest or bad weather. Gonna be a major challenge and a trip to remember!

Keep eating Mexican food and you will scare the gators away. Elaine's is always the best bet.

Have you been using the Garmin for turn by turn directions? Hows that working out?

The gators down there are friendly. I used to catch them for fun as a kid.
Of course, some of the ones that I messed with may still be pissed off. You may want to steer clear of the gators near the Tangipahoa River in Louisiana.
I doubt they would bother you unless they were in the mood for appetizers ...
