We did what we do best. We refused to choose. We picked both.
The day started with a spirited 70 mile run through the eastern Ozark Mountains. The weather was dry and cool and the roads were twisty and scenic. Truly a good morning.
We took Highway 65 onto I-40 near Little Rock. It was then a matter of cranking up the music and settling down for a 130 mile ride into Memphis.

Back to Tennessee
We have been told that this year's blog has not included enough food coverage. OK. How's this?
This says it all: happy hour at the Peabody Hotel and ribs at the Rendezvous

Libations in the Peabody Hotel Lobby. Peach Bourbon, Mint Julep and Manhattan.
Dessert in the Peabody Hotel Lobby. Left to right, Tennessee Pecan Bourbon Pie, Lemon Meringue Pie and Equinox Cake (hazelnut praline chocolate mousse cake).
Tomorrow, we pack our bikes and ride out of town for the last time. We are a little over 200 miles from Nashville and expect to be home by early afternoon.
