Just survived a 1300km drive home from South Carolina...one minivan, 3 adults, 2 kids, 4 bikes, gravol (for the adults) and lots of cartoons- Backyardigans, Dora, Diego, etc. The trip was good-- two weeks of cycling, spring weather, having fun with the kids and friends.
The cycling was a great start to the season, completed some epic rides. A few good climbs up Ceasar's head-- a climb that is 6 miles or so. Some longer rides out to Clemson, the Bob's grill loop and of course a few coffee stops along the way. I must admit that I do enjoy a stop for coffee either during or at the end of most of my rides. Although in Pickens, South Carolina coffee stops are alot harder than the multitude of Tim Horton's in the Niagara Region. That is why those coffee stops in SC were pretty good! Highlights for the kids include- throwing rocks/sticks in the river, riding bikes, climbing in the cupboards. Overall we had a great trip and looking forward to some early season cycling races!
