I met Allan Hanoski in Linden, TX at the Motel Friday evening. We rode out to Vaughan's Catfish for a late night dinner and it was good. We got up early the next morning and headed out through northern Louisiana. It was a nice ride until I had a flat tire over close to Mississippi. The rear tire definitely did some fish-tailing as it deflated quickly. We plugged it, then slimed it. I rode 50 mph for the first 50 miles, then sped up a bit to meet some fine folks at Clancy's. I was a few minutes late and had to spend my time on the phone tracking down a replacement tire, so I didn't get to visit like I would have liked to. I thought the food was good. I did find a tire in Greenville, MS with the help of Fletcher Clark. They were real prompt to help, but I wasn't able to enjoy the back country roads that I had planned. Regardless, it was a wonderful trip. Alan and I had dinner at the Bourbon Mall in Bourbon, Ms and returned home the following day. I have a couple of pictures of the trail along the way and the lunch at Yazoo. The folks that were present at lunch include:
