Charlotte, NC to Pageland, SC


Today felt kinda like giving birth, it was very difficult but it produced an extreme amount of happiness and relief afterwards. Who am I kidding I have no idea what it is like to give birth. But I can say it was great to be back on the road after having a wonderful week off. It was so nice to have a personal escort for 25 miles. Jorge drove his motorbike along side of me all the way out of town.
Today I completed just over 2000km since Toronto.
This week off feels like I grew completely out of shape, cause my legs are simply hurting of exhaustion I really hope they get enough rest for tomorrow...

My future route is really up in the air. As I have not decided how I'll leave the states, There are two options:

  1. Bike south into Florida I hit Tampa Bay. There I would get a Ferry boat to Cancun, MX. = The positive of this option is that I would be well into Latin America by the new year and would throughly benefit Cancun area and Belize.

  2. Bike to south and once hitting Florida's pan handle, head west crossing the mid eastern shore of the gulf of Mexico in through Louisiana, Texas and Mexico always staying on the shore as much as possible. = the advantages of these are more time to get to know different parts of the US, possible contact in Tallahassee, Texas (one friend I don't know where and a WWOOFing near the MX border) as well as Tampico, MX (Bill let me know if this interest you to come out for a visit). This route will be a lot more road and the ferry of course.

Now is the time for you to get involved and take an active part on this trip by writing a comment bellow or sending me an email if you have any tips, warnings, more contacts, or ideas of what route should I go... Looking forward to your feedback!!!
