Memphass

We're doing laundry and re-packing our junk after an awesome thirty some hours in Memphis. We got into town late yesterday afternoon after a roughly sixty mile day, much of it along busy ass highway 51. A friend of a friend hooked us up with a place to stay in Midtown, inhabited by three really cool folks who are into bikes, music, and other such awesomeness. I ate the best barbecue I've ever had and we went to a metal show and drank cheap tall boys; Memphis seems like a ton of fun and it sucks that our time here is so short. Tomorrow we're heading into Arkansas, and we're hoping to pick up the pace and cover some serious ground so as to have a few quality days at the end of our trip to enjoy New Orleans. The next stretch of the MRT covers about a hundred miles before crossing any camping facilities, and we'll likely be riding through heavy rain throughout the day. Should be awesome.
