So, I ended up in Leeds, Alabama, on the east side of Birmingham, essentially. I didn't really want to spend the night in downtown Birmingham, so I skirted to the south and east of Birmingham and ended up in Leeds, Alabama basically.

I wasn't able to ride 300 miles today, primarily due to Tropical Storm Nestor. It was sort of half-rainy/drizzly in the morning (leaving Madison/Jackson), and then again in the evening, as I was skirting south of Birmingham, AL. So, I chose to stop, hoping for better riding weather tomorrow. Tomorrow, I only have about 336 miles to travel, and the weather looks better for my ride tomorrow through Atlanta, Augusta, and Columbia. Basically, it looks like the storm moves out/dissapates tonight, leaving me any easy (dry) ride into Columbia, S.C. tomorrow.

I think I'll go ahead and gas up tonight so I start with a full tank in the morning, anyway.

Refueled at 6:20 p.m.:
