I was riding with Adventure Cycling on the trace from 10/29-11/4, South to North, might have passed you along the way. Couple cold nights and some rain, but otherwise a nice ride. It looked like it would be pretty easy to set up your own Inn to Inn ride there except for the section from Natchez to Jackson where there's not a lot in between.
