ABTA Bicycle Tour

Night two we stayed in Bumpass, VA / Lake Anna with a wonderful couple. We meet them in their church parking lot while we were sucking down sweet tea (with the help of Vern). The stay was compleate with boating, swimming, pasta, wine, A/C....the worksss!
Food Stop in Ashland, VA.

Ross and Matt at a battlefield (and just figured out how to set the self timer on the camera!

Home for night one. We were welcomed by the Willis Methodist Church just before Glendale, VA. Aprox. 60 miles into the ride, although we rode 72 sinde we checked out Williamsberg!

The "official" start of the TransAm trail. Vistory Monument Yorktown, VA.

Dipping our wheels in the Atlantic at Yorktown, VA.

Were two days and around 130 miles into the TransAm trail. We had a wonderful goodbye with my (matt's) folks! It was great that they were able to make it down to see us of. The first day we road through historic Jamestown and Williamsburg. We ended in Glendale, VA at Willis Methodist with 72 miles completed, although only 62 were progress. This was a mix of my map reading skills up to now and road detours. We ended the night with some much needed pizza and sleep. It was great to enjoy some AC the first night. Day two can be summed up by saying it was very hot and we must carry more water. We have now begun to see some hills, but there very minor compared to what we will see at the end of the week. We were welcomed by a couple at the end of our day who opened their house up to us. We were fed and also enjoyed some swimming in warm Lake Anna. Today's mileage was right around 70, which puts as at a grand total of approximately 132 miles into the ride.
