We did try what was supposed to be a nice bike trail in Hendersonville, NC on Tuesday. It finally warmed to near 50o<\/sup> around noon.<\/p>\n

We decided to start at a park on the south end and head north since it was only a few miles from where we camped. It was a nice park with lots of parking, a nice paved trail that was about 3-1\/2 miles long each way. We headed off and went around the corner and found the trail underwater. I know it follows a creek but not in a creek. We turned around and rode around the park and then packed up to head to visit our friends Greg & Sandy Lewis, Keel-Haulers from Cleveland, who built their palatial estate on a beautiful Lake Keowee north of Clemson.<\/p>\n

To not to repeat myself, take a look at this link to my blog about our visit 2 years ago: https:\/\/bcpoa.org\/wordpress\/?p=4488<\/a><\/p>\n

Today got warm and sunny so I convinced Peggy to try a nearby Rail Trail from Pickins to Easley, SC called the Doodle Trail. Greg took us over there and peddled his mountain bike. It was a really different trail, 10\u2019 wide asphalt in semi-rural area but lots of small road crossings and continuous up and down 3% grades. It is 7-1\/2 miles one way. Our 15 miles trip took about 1-1\/2 hours.<\/p>\n

Our plan is to leave Friday morning and head to Augusta, GA on the Savannah River where there are supposed to be some nice bike trails and the Augusta Canal National Heritage Area<\/p>\n
