Mike & Tod - Day 8

Another day, another set of blow outs.

Looks like the Space Centre boys didn't help much.

Tod had another two and here Mike is dealing with one, after he and his tire lost a battle with a big hunk of glass (I think that's what's in Tod's hand - lower left).

Here Mike has just thrown his bike in the canal.

Hey, hiking is also good exercise.

Uhh...thanks guys. Always room for one more searching for Uranus joke on this trip.

But finally made it to Daytona Beach.

Here Tod is determining whether beach riding is the way to go.

Bet you won't get many flats riding on sand. Although with these guys....

I guess they figured that decision might take a while, so might as well get comfortable.

I think they were selling 2-pint draughts for $4.

THEY LOVE AMERICA!!

So with the aforementioned technical difficulties and the impossible to pass up office breaks, they only made 40 clicks yesterday.

But tomorrow, our adventurers must leave the coast, taking a left at Ormond Beach, and head inland.

Now they'll find out what Florida's all about.

I can hear the theme from Deliverance starting already.....

But first, some last quiet contemplation of the ocean.....
