Day 3: Mitch

Day 3 was a great recovery day. The knee felt pretty good, at least it didn't get any worse. It was a very smooth running day thanks to Susan and Paul. They stopped and checked on us frequently and were always helping us with whatever we needed. It really makes it enjoyable to have such good support.

It was a lot of fun for me today, we rode past a place where I have been ice climbing (Doughton Park), and had some brief but nice views of Stone Mountain which is another climbing location I've been to. We finished the day covering some of the parkway that I rode with Perry on my last trip to the parkway this past May, from the state line to Fancy Gap, so there was some familiar territory for me today. It was a very nice quiet day, very low traffic and perfect weather.

Tomorrow is a long day, 108 miles, but it already feel like coming down the home stretch. I'm having a lot of fun.
