Rosedale, VA to Pikeville, KY – 67 mi, 9.4 mph, +5,364 elevation gain<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Virginia kicked my bum leaving and KY dished out the most treacherous road we have yet to see. One lane… no where to pass. The road was even washed out in a part. I practiced the technique of \u201c walk -a- bike for close to 4 miles. AND most was down. Jocelynn was a rock star driving our rig in these conditions. At one point a car full of people stopped and handed me $2 and told me to get a drink. I was so humbled because it honestly could have been their only $2. This brought tears to my eyes. I rode some of the poorest parts of our country today. Tomorrow is a new day. Praise God. We are staying at Breaks Interstate Park. So so so rugged. My legs are also beaten up. My stats are in the photos. Big miles again despite the conditions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
