Front Royal, VA

The day start pretty slow. Rode into Waynesboro for lunch and and the first guy with a scooter i saw since the trip has to be unpleasent (You can't win them all). The first word out of his mouth was asking me if i have any MaryJ. shesh. Will (from Willville) did told me that around here, most 50cc scooter driver are people who has their license pull for DUI. it seems that Waynesboro is the place for scooter. there was definitely more scooter here than most place. After a visit to MickyD, i was off to Skyline drive and Shenadoah NP. It would have cost me $10 for a week pass to drive thru it, but i got an annual pass so it's all good. There is a cafeteria in the middle of the park and it seems to be a place where a lots of AT hikers hang out. While hanging out there, The rain went crazy. Got to Front Royal at the end of the day.

Sherando Lake (BRP)

Took my sweet time chatting with motorcyclist at Willville and didn't take off until 10am. Skip a lot of overlook to try to make my make 170 miles today. Stop by Walmart To pickup a bag of salad and popcorn chicken. I saw a few more deer crossing the road. then suddenly, a damn squirrel ran into the middle of my path. he was a good 50 feet away. i slow to a 20mph, he first run left, then run right. i figure i better go straight and let him choose his path. he then run left, right, left, right, and then i run over a bump. A gut wrenching feeling came over me as i shout "Son of a bitch" (i don't mind killing animal for food or if they are a pest, but mindless death is sad). Saw an AT hiker and strike up a conversation. He was carrying a DeLorne 2 way satellite thing-a-ma-gih. Pull over to chat with a fellow who was running a pit stop for the Buena Vista cycle club charity race. He was very generous and offer me many snack, but i only want to take what i could use today so i gratefully accepted 3 banana and a bag of chips. I thanks him and head over to Lake Sherando to get a camp spot

Meadow of Dan (BRP)

Slept in late, 8:30am, because i got a huge headache. Scott recommended a next campsite for the nite and we parted ways. Almost ran over a deer as it cross the road, I slow down as it crosses me at 50 feet away. i then start accelerating, then another one follow him and i barely miss the second. Good thing my ruckus accelerate for shit. The riding is good on the BRP. I made it to Meadow of Dan and stay at Willville motorcycle camp. It was a great place to stay at. Will made a nice camp fire and one of the tenant (David Judge) pulls out his guitar and sang some great blues.













Umm... Road kill... I bet it's tasty



Some wonder how I camp. Well, I bivy sack it. And just for fun, I put a tarp to cover the scooter Andy head from rain or dew.
