Our day started by meeting our bicycling outfitter for the start of our ride on the Greenbrier River Trail. This trail, a rails-to-trails conversion, follows the bed of an old railroad for about 70 miles from where we started today to Cass. Cass is where we rode the train yesterday. These trails are car free and we saw very few other riders or hikers. We basically had it to ourselves. It was a great ride along the Greenbrier River and everyone made it without complaints or “injuries.” Boys rode anywhere from about 8 to 12 miles.
We came back to Lewisburg (just a few minutes away) for lunch and then went to a big field for a came of “baseball.” Most boys played the low-key game while a few others amused themselves trying to find the groundhog they saw run into its den in a clump of bushes as we drove up.
We returned to the motel around 3:30 for some swim time and chill time and then ended the day’s activities with a great dinner at When Pigs Fly Barbecue. We enjoyed dinner here so much three years ago that it was a “must stop” for this year. We called ahead and arranged for a buffet. The anticipation of mouth-watering barbecue was rewarded with plenty of great food.
It was another day of adventure for the boys and leaders.
