Day 1: Bennettsville,SC to Lebanon, TN

Decided to call it the day after about 520 miles. We are currently in Lebanon, TN, just short of Nashville. Incredible hot this afternoon. I had an indicated temp. of 104 a few times on the bike. The heat really started after we passed Knoxville, TN. Traffic was pretty heavy being Labor Day weekend.

Both bikes are running smooth, without a hitch. We’re headed out to get some supper shortly, probably SubWay.

No pics for today, just interstate riding. We’ll continue tomorrow at daybreak.
