The Blues Highway - By printing724

Did this ride in reverse (Memphis to Vicksburg) in September 2017. We stayed on 60 basically tried to hug the river. Tried some tertiary roads to get closer, no river. Wasn't going to go on the dirt levee road. Didn't expect to see much of the river but was surprised to see no evidence of it at all. If you want to see the Mississippi River you have to cross it on a bridge or view it from the ridges in Vicksburg. Scenery ok but not special. Enough turns to keep you awake. Flat, of course. Road quality is decent. I recommend it as a "been there done that" sort of thing.
