I am still in Savannah for today. Today’s ride was much better route-wise since I knew how most of the bike lanes are arranged. I did not get lost but traffic was busier today now that Labor Day has passed. School buses were on their routes when I rode this morning. I stuck to the roads with bike lanes or wide shoulders that were equal to or wider than the bike lanes. This must have been what the 8 other bicyclists I saw had in mind. I passed them with in the opposite direction while I was headed back to the hotel. We exchanged waves from opposite sides of the 4 lane road. The weather was ride perfect but very humid at 84%. Partly cloudy skies, 78 degrees, and north 4 mph breeze were waiting when I started.
