Today was an unbelievable day of riding on the Blue Ridge Parkway. Everything came together, the weather, the traffic, the views, the climbs and the thrilling downhills. Charlie and I didn't see each other today once we left Blowing Rock. We had planned on meeting at our stopping point tonight from the beginning. We are the great private campground off the parkway with hot showers. Tomorrow night we'll be back to stealth camping somewhere around Mount Mitchell. Hopefully on the other side of Mount Mitchell. Leaving from here we will gain just a little over 3,000 ft in elevation tomorrow and we will start going through some of the 26 tunnels on the remainder of the Parkway.

Grandfather Mountain with the Lynn cove viaduct in the background
Riding across the viaduct was an amazing experience.
Woo hoo! Your doing it!!
