The first leg of this trip is a series of long driving distances broken up by periodic bicycle rides. Yes, this time I’m traveling with a folding bicycle which I rode today in both Roanoke and around the Virginia Tech campus. It was fun! It sort of fills a space between walking and driving. I could cover ground faster than by walking and yet still get closer to things than I can in my car. Today was a good first test of the bike’s value.
“Folding bicycle?” you ask? Watch the video and learn more!
Specifically, the two places I rode today were around Mill Mountain where the video above was shot and around the campus of Virginia Tech. To see exactly where I rode, click on the neat map below.
