The alarm clock started buzzing at 4:00 AM - what yo-yo came up with this plan?
I met Alan at the Waffle House in Tyrone around 4:45 AM. A quick cup of coffee and a prayer and we were "on the road" a few minutes after 5:00. The weather was cool but just perfect for riding. The road was a little damp from the rain during the night but not raining at departure. Our route took us up I-85 through Atlanta headed for Charlotte, NC and I-77. We entered South Carolina at 7:00 AM and it wasn't long before it started to drizzle. We stopped under an overpass and put on our rain gear. It started to rain a little harder but probably didn't last more than five minutes. We entered North Carolina around 9:00 AM and again encountered a short period of rain. After reaching Virginia, the weather cleared and it was a beautiful day.
The day was to be our most ambitious day with all Interstate riding totaling over 700 miles.
We arrived at Hagerstown, MD approximately 5:45 PM. We rode 722 miles though six (6) states (GA, SC, NC, VA, WV, MD). We are tired! Goodnight.
