Fredericksburg, VA

We had fantastic weather today and cycled 83 miles.  While that sums up our day, we should step back and fill in some details. Last evening  as we were walking home from dinner, Joe mentioned that our trip would start in "that direction" but Jeff countered, "no, we would be leaving in the opposite direction." When we got back to Jeff's house, the wine was opened and starting direction was quickly forgotten.  We considered several alternative routes to get us to Occoquan, VA and had agreed on the "shortest route." So this morning, we left and once again Joe wanted to go right and Jeff left. Somewhere in our planning we must have agreed on 2 different shortest routes.  I guess that is what sustains our friendship.

Along the way we met 3 cyclists from Kansas also heading to Reedville, VA and staying in the same B&B as us.  We also met a couple from San Francisco on their way to New York City.  Otherwise, today's ride was just to get us to Fredericksburg.  Tomorrow should provide many points of interest and photos.
