It wasn't a dark and stormy night, but it was an overcast and damp day. It rained most of the night last night and into the morning. I waited until 10 AM to start out, but the roads were still very wet. Thankfully there was very little traffic, so I didn't get much road spray. After an hour or so the roads had dried out, but it remained cool and overcast all day.

I spent a lot of time on roads like this today.

My first stop was in the small town of New Madison. We couldn't find any restaurants along the route that were open today, Sunday, so we stopped at the New Madison Supermarket, procured some deli fixings, and had lunch sitting in the car. It wasn't bad, just part of life on the road :-)

The next town I rode through was Arcanum. It was a nice-looking town that still had brick streets in the business district.

Arcanum had several attractive houses near the center of town.

I picked up the pace somewhat after leaving Arcanum because the weather looked threatening, so I didn't take any photos until I reached Greenville.

The county administrative office is next door to the courthouse.

This downtown movie theater was first opened in 1921. It was closed for thirteen years, then renovated and reopened two years ago.

After leaving downtown Greenville, I did get a few sprinkles, but reached our hotel by 3:30 without getting wet.

Today's ride: 43 miles (69 km)
Total: 578 miles (930 km)
