Grindstone Campground near Mt. Rogers in western Virgina was the campsite last night after an evening ride on the Virgina Creeper Trail, a converted railroad track that is now a bike path outside Abington and Damascus, Va. Portions of the path are shared with the Appalachian Trail as it winds through the mountains. Today, the duo rode to just a few miles west of Christiansburg coming in with a total of 77 miles for the day.
Update: This was a solo, self-supported day for Pat & Sean as the SAG detoured to Charlotte, NC to visit relatives for the day and spend the night. So they pulled the bike trailer and camped on their own in a park near Radford, VA. Funny thing is they got up and were on the road by 9:00 AM the next day. Hmmm, maybe self-supported is the way to go since sleeping in while in a tent just isn't that fun?

I read about suggestions of a day or two of century riding, times running out, you better crank them out now. If you have wondered about some of the anonymous messages, most are from Daniel and a couple from Ashley. I myself started one weeks ago with this whole plan for your trip from an interested movie script writer, but gave up after one installment when Daniel abd Ashley wanted to start sending anonymous notes as well, and to comment on the secret movie script writer (me - Uncle Tim). If it played out you would have gotten many more inquiries about your trip - especially wanting spicy, racey stories to sell a script. The idea was to get a dialogue going with you, but just as well I stopped since we have noticed you guys never address your audience's comments. The "life of road stars", just take in the adulation and can't be bothered with talking to the little people. The stars have too much Harry Potter to read. Just kidding guys, keep going. Uncle Tim
Sean & Pat are so Hollywood - keeping their heads clouds and leaving their fans wanting more.
Gentlemen! Nice job! My best friend and I are graduates of the first Sabino High graduating class (75 - yea, old geezers, I know). When we got out of the U of A, we did a cross country trip ... from Tucson to Bangor! Reading about your trip brought back memories. The friend I took the trip with commented that you even look like us! In some respects our trip was easier (only 2950 miles) but we also didn't have a van. Ran out of food sometimes and slept in some pretty weird places (jail, cemetary). Overall, one of those experiences we will never forget (as I am sure you won't). Nice job!
