Cycle North Carolina 2009 Wrap Up

Memories

  • Riding with Chris and Doug. Sometimes we were five but a lot of the time the three of us stuck together
  • Meeting Don, who I hope to ride with again sometime next year
  • The continuing soap opera in the indoor camping area
  • The best overnight stops: Lenoir, Dunn and Kenansville
  • The worst overnight stops: Sanford and Statesville -- (bad bad indoor camping both nights and a horrible breakfast in Statesville
  • The wonderful views from the Blue Ridge Parkway
  • Second Fret in Statesville
  • The neat rest stop in Warsaw and the stop in Seagrove
Overall results for the week
24:11:58 ride time, 18.5 average speed, 447.70 miles

  1. Wow, I've never done a multi-day cycling tour like that before. Looks like some fun times and beautiful scenery in those photos. My husband thinks staying in a 2-star hotel is camping, though ;-)

    Thanks for stopping by my blog. I'll actually be in NC next week for the Beach to Battleship iron tri and look forward to seeing more of the state.
