Cycling the Underground Railroad

DAY 5: LINDEN TO MONTGOMERY,  BY TRUCK Last night the storm moved in, and by this morning the sky had broken open and rain was pouring down.   The ride to Montgomery during the day-long downpour. As we had discussed last night, my riding partner Susan found two great gentlemen,  Butch (on the right) and Robert (left) who drove us and our bikes two hours in the deluge from Linden to Montgomery. Robert, Susan (riding partner for part of the trip), myself and Butch arriving in Montgomery. According to the Weather Service, the storm is supposed to move through early Thursday morning.  We'll wait out the thunderstorms here in downtown Montgomery tomorrow,  and visit several of the museums related to the "second" Civil Rights Movement (the original being the Underground Railroad/Abolitionist Movement). View of downtown Montgomery, Alabama from my 4th floor motel room. Thursday, weather permitting,  I'll ride the Selma to Montgomery National Historic Trail....
