The easiest – but not especially interesting – way to bike tour in Mississippi is to ride the Natchez Trace. It’s pleasant, but kinda boring. If you get off the Trace, there’s a lot more to see. I did find dogs to be a problem a few times, and there was some poverty that was shocking, even to someone like me who grew up in Eastern Kentucky. But people were friendly, and drivers were courteous on the low-traffic roads I found.

Once again, wonderful photographs and refreshing to see what your eye is seeing and not 20 “selfies” of you along the way or photos of what you ate for breakfast, lunch and dinner. Bravo!

Very familiar images of the deep south. Almost any non-urban area across 4-5 states.
