Road washed out


Info travels by word of mouth along the transam. It's actually pretty interesting how quickly you find out about cool places to stay and obstacles in the road. I heard the road was out about 200 mikes before we got to it, but Logan got the info in Virginia. I was told about the wash out by at least three different groups including people who were not connected to the trail. We were told by this older couple that there was a plank across the 15 foot gap, but that we should either find another route or go into the field and walk around. This came off as a challenge so Logan and me decided to walk our bikes across the board. It turned out to be easier than expected though it would have made for a better picture if one of us had fallen in.
