Tarboro, GA. to Odum, GA.
65 miles

Sand gnats may actually be worse than mosquitoes.  They are about 
1/10th the size, come in millions and they bite apparently only on my 
forehead.  As some of you may know, I have a large forehead and its just 
killing me.

Anyway, we rode through some of the most scenic backroads so far on the 
trip.  It certainly does add some mileage to the day but well worth it.
Georgia has so many different types of terrain.  They include beaches, 
plains, swamps, mountains, and of course Atlanta.  This state is great 
for touring.

We made into Odum today.  Our legs felt like jello all day.  Two days 
of riding into heavy winds has drained our energy levels.  I am hoping 
we can get over this hump and get some energy level back.

We are camping next to Citgo gas station.  Its pretty nice considering.  
Patel Lalo, the owner, has allowed this to happen.  Thank you.  

We will try for Statesboro, home of Georgia Southern University.  We are 
in need of a bike shop and an army surplus store for Josh.    

Good night.

Jin, Glenn, Josh
1 mile at a time..
