Today we rode from Perry to Ichetucknee Springs State Park near Fort White, FL. I struggled a little on today’s ride. I’m not sure if it was the slight headwind or if all the riding is finally catching up with me. But looking forward to a fresh ride tomorrow. Today’s ride was along Highway 27 for the first 40 miles.
We rode through Mayo, FL which is the Lafayette County seat with a nice courthouse, but not much else. They had a sandwich shop called Mayo Subs. Is it okay to say “Hold the mayo” when you order there?
We also rode through Branford which is along the Suwannee River. Let’s do one more sing-a-long before this journey ends.
“Way down upon the Suwannee River, Far, far away. That’s where my heart is yearning ever, Home where the old folks stay.”
We took a walk down to Ichetucknee Springs to the main crystal-clear natural spring which creates the 6-mile Ichetucknee River. Tubing and Kayaking are popular here. We hope to take a short kayak ride in the morning. Stay tuned.
