Biking in the Fall

Over the weekend, we loaded up all the bikes and headed up toward Galax, VA, to find the New River Trail State Park http://www.dcr.virginia.gov/state_parks/new.shtml. It is the most beautiful place we have found to go on a day trip to bike. It takes about one and a half hours to get to from Winston Salem. It used to be a rail road line, so it is almost completely flat and has little water falls, big trellises and dark tunnels. Fun for us and for the boys. This latest time, we were able to bike five miles out and back, taking along plenty of grapes and apple chips to put into any little mouths that thought about whining. icon wink Biking in the Fall Since it is so flat, even 10 miles is doable for all of us, although we were ready to get back in the car by the end of the journey.

    I’m sure the scenery was beautiful especially with the colored autumn leaves. Glad you all had such an enjoyable day.:-)

    What a great place to bike! In this area they have done something similar and it runs for miles through our part of the county. And you do all look healthy – and happy!
