Ride Report:
Phil rode to the start and arrived about 5-10 minutes before 9:00AM; we waited a bit for more to show but no one did so off we went. We encountered David at about mile 8 on the narrow section of MD 224. We all rode together down to the end of Route 6 for a quick break at the river. You really can’t see the river anymore because someone has piled brush at the end of the road.
When we started our return we seemed to gain a tail wind. David turned off the route at about mile 34. Phil and I continued back to the start without incident and we had a drink and a snack at Pisgah store where we talked about... wait for it – bicycling. It was another good ride; thanks for joining me gentlemen.
