We started our morning at the Hard Rock’s Sugar Factory with a delicious big breakfast for $7.77. We rode from Biloxi to Gulf Shores, via Dauphin Island for 87miles plus 6 miles on ferry and 1329 feet of bicycling elevation gain. I saw Gasoline as low as 2.15 in MS. By the way the lowest price for gasoline that I saw in Texas was for $2.07 at an Exxon in Kountze.
Unfortunately, outside of Pascagoula, I got my third flat on the trip, that delayed us to getting to the ferry terminal for an earlier ride to keep us on a good amount of daylight to continue for significant miles. We changed the flat by standing beside the road like pros. We arrived at Fort Morgan at 1730, with sundown at 18:12. On that 6 plus mile ferry ride, which cost $5, I counted 13 drill platforms in all directions from the ferry and saw dolphins swimming beside the ferry. We needed to bike 20 more miles to Gulf Shores, AL when we got off the ferry so we so we could find a hotel.
Our plan for the next day is to bike to Defuniak Springs, FL.
