The Bikes

The bikes took this trip to the next level. They gave the trip a new dimension.

Last fall, after camping season was over, we bought the camper. Then, very shortly after that, inspired by watching camping videos (trying to decide where we would go), we bought the bikes. Before that, bikes had not been on our radar.

The bikes are awesome. They allowed us to see things we would not have seen otherwise. Had we gone to Acadia without the bikes, we would have spent another day hiking instead of the bike ride we took. We would have seen some beautiful views, but in the case of Acadia, we saw those views by bike instead. And the bonus is that we saw 10 times more by bike that we would have on foot.

In the case of the Virginia Creeper Trail, without the bikes, we would not have seen any of it. The VCT was an awesome day and a great adventure that we will do again. The VCT is 34 miles long and most of it georgeous. No bikes, no VCT.

The bikes will not replace the hikes, but without the bikes, we will see and do less.Leggi altro
