Mt Pleasant, SC to Cottagevill, SC Today started like the last few days with me waking up at 630, packing up camp and eating an apple for breakfast. As I was heading out my front tire was making this really annoying, high pitched rubbing sound every time I hit the smallest bump. I stopped to […]

Murrells Inlet, SC to Mt Pleasant, SC (Via Jamestown) I woke up this morning at 630 feeling refreshed and ready to tackle the day. I had scoped out a free campground in the middle of the Francis Marion National forest. The US Forestry website listed the only amenity as a water pump. You can’t beat […]

Longwood, NC to Murrells Inlet, SC I ran over a lizard this morning. It was a total accident and I totally tried to swerve but I guess the poor guy had a death wish. I just really needed to get that out. I woke up this morning at 6, ate an avocado for breakfast and […]

Carolina Beach, NC to Grissettown, NC Ah, what a beautiful day it turned out to be. I woke up at 430 this morning so that I could catch the 615 ferry across the river. It was still pitch black when I set out but I learned that my headlamp can function as a perfectly acceptable […]

And on the 7th day he rested. I took the day off today to give my tired legs a break. Last night before I went to sleep I had psyched myself up for pushing on to the next town but when my alarm went off this morning at 5 my body told me to chill […]

Jacksonville, NC to Carolina Beach, NC Today was an interesting day. Part comedy, part triumph, part folly with just a dash of suck. Lets begin, shall we? I woke up at about 530 to a whirlwind of uncomfortably itching. These mosquito bites are going to be the death of me. I’ve had my fair share […]

Bridgeton, NC to Jacksonville, NC Nothing really noteworthy happened last night after my update except a beautiful sunset over the river. Follow me on Instagram if you’re into that sort of thing or if you’d like to see me trying to be a classy photographer 🙂  @jamesandhisbike So I woke up this morning around 630, […]

Strap in, folks. This is gonna be kind of a long post. So two things happened last night after I posted the days blog post that really need telling. One is totally awesome the other is horrifying so let’s get the bad out of the way first. I was talking to my dear, sweet sun […]

I woke up today feeling a bit sore from yesterday’s punishments but otherwise in fine spirits. I ate my leftover pizza for breakfast and set off for what I hoped to be an easy recovery day. It was a bit windy but nothing like yesterday. The road I was riding on was in excellent condition […]
