Today was a tough go of it, no question about it. It was another hot day and there was a headwind the entire day also, but there was something that was much much worse. There is a Harley Davidson rally in Myrtle Beach which I cycled through and it was brutal. Literally a million loud as all get out bikes just blasting at me down the highway. I am not the biggest fan of the highway, but these bikes were just pelting me with noise the whole time, awful. So awful. I had to take moments away from it just so I could collect myself. I officially hate Harley's now, I'm not cycling down the highway just yelling into everyone else's face, so why are they? So frustrating.
I did eat some lovely soul food at 'Aunnys' in Georgetown SC which made everything all better. Probably some of the best fried chicken, fried shrimp, cornbread and collards I've ever had. When i told the server I'd only had collards from up north side said, "honey, if you ain't had collards from the south you ain't had collards". Turns out I ain't had collards until now. So good.
Georgetown South Carolina is a weird place though, they have a rice museum. Most of their history involves rice apparently.... But now they have no rice. Such a weird thing to have as history. Rice.
