Leg 11 - Talledega, AL to Montgomery, AL


I got smoked in the Smokey Mountains. Hardest climbs I've ever faced and the road didn't help as much of it was 2 lanes, poor shoulders, and old asphalt - I know - wah. Took a break to get bike supplies in Montgomery, which took longer than expected and then headed west on historic route 80 (MLK march from Selma to Montgomery) toward Selma. Thankfully, it was 4 lanes the whole way and should be for tomorrow as well. Made it about half way to Selma for a total 91 miles.

Alll right! Hang in there. Hopefully the terrain from here on out will be more accommodating. Looks like you are just about half-way through the journey and you are really making good time.
