Rode up from around Welcome, NC to Carroll County, Virginia and along about 40 miles of the Blue Ridge Parkway. Had a pretty day up in the hills (2800ft), much cooler up there than down in the Triad where it was a steamy 97F today. Had a really nice dance through Fancy Gap yesterday on the way up to BRP; today, got behind a guy towing a big camping trailer (curses!).
