Cycle NC Day 3
Cycle NC Day 3
Nice and dry 62 miles with 2600’ of climbing from Reidsville to Roxboro. My brother and I rode together for about half today’s ride. No rain until the tent was set up!!
The luggage truck had a flat tire so we’re waiting for it to show up.
I found the beer truck so it’s all good!
My brother behind me at the start
Me riding with a couple others
School kids painted pictures which were placed along the road about every 1/2 mile
Nice old house out in the country
This was a rest stop. Early 1800’s
My brother and me at today’s finish.

Missed your earlier posts. Had to go back to them and see what that ride about. You do a good, or at least decent job of getting picture evidence of your rides. So I'm envious of that.
Though I use to take pic's of everything when I was younger with a SLR, the digital age sort of took the fun out of it for me. Now I seldom bother to get shots even when I know I should.
You doing all seven days? Even just three would be a blast for me.

I could post and take a lot more pictures but I just want to give folks a flavor of the experience. Multi day rides with camping seem to be my niche.

Yes on all 7 days. We will finish at N Topsail Beach on Saturday. We’ll camp there Saturday night then catch a bus back to Durham where my van is parked.
