Day 3 Mineral, VA to Charlottesville, VA


Yorktown, VA to Charlottesville,VA

Biking Detail





















The best day so far. Weather cooled off a bit and started the day at about 50 degrees and a little wind from the North, just enough to give us a partial tailwind for awhile. Lots of rolling countryside making for fast decents and slow climbs. Many 9%-10% sharp rises for 1/4 mile or maybe a little more. Every time we went down we knew there would be a hill to climb up. Hit max speed of 38.4 miles and got 3500 feet plus of elevation gain in the 53.8 miles.

Stopped early today at the Foxfield B and B just outside Charlottesville. It is graduation week at the University of Virginia so we felt lucky to get a room. Even has a hot tub which we used.
