Philly to Asheville – update #2

I left Gallipolis, OH this morning right after the fog lifted on the Ohio river scenic byway.

Aaron and I had spent his day off tooling on “the motorcycle that will never run.” We got it…well…, sounding better? Maybe, but we did get gas all over us. It was nice to see him talking like a real Ohio’an, as well as Erin. man, she’s funny!

Rode rt7 to the country music highway to blast it to Asheville. I was quickly greeted by rain, suited up, and rode hard. In and out of rain all day and it was fukn collllllllllddd.

40 miles from Ashville I got some sun. Unsuited and went to Asheville pizza and brewery. Sweet spot, met some townies with the word on the street and booked a bunk at the sweet peas hostel. They have a fukn brewery! What are the chances?!

Talk to you soon.
