Today was an extremely fun day. I rode about 75 miles with Lee, Rachel, and Ryan and discovered that they like to keep up a fast pace going above 20 mph a lot of the time. Keeping up was rough especially because I was carrying way more weight than I needed.
It was tough but definitely worth it. We used the extra time to take various long breaks throughout the day. We sat down and talked with a few really nice folks in Ashland. We got to jump off a dock into Lake Anna behind Maria's house and had a play date with her son. We were given free ice cream at the final gas station on our route. All of these things were made possible by the fast and furious nature of the ride.
Tonight, we're camping out at a fire station in Mineral (Also known as Rock Town). Dinner was pizza which had more meat than actual pizza material. Right before getting ready for bed I heard the sound of someone taking a wrong turn in a car and ending up over 10 feet down a railroad track.
Tomorrow, I will reduce the weight of my bike and ride into charlottesville.
