We took off to Georgia at the end of April to finally experience the Silver Comet Trail. I had heard so much about it, decided this was as good of a time as any! Gay and Gary Bradford came along, and we had a super fun week exploring Georgia!
We rode a trail in Carrollton, Georgia the day before Silver Comet. The people in Georgia are super friendly, and a local gave us a detailed (as in where each bump, mid puddle, stick, etc.) was along the Silver Comet (the ENTIRE Silver Comet). Also, a worker that had to replace the refrigerator at the resort we were staying in spent the morning filling us in on every inch of a lot f trails. TOO CUTE and so nice. SO we had a great game plan from the locals on what sections to hit and what to avoid.
In a nutshell: Georgia is HILLY!!!!!!!!!!!! I said thanks about every five minutes for the maker of the BionX. I would have had a VERY short ride without that baby. As it was, I kept the BionX on about 2 the entire distances (except on the return segment on the Silver Comet - we had climbed the ENTIRE way heading out, but WOO HOO was that EVER a fun return trip!!).
Gay and I had our Go Pro's on and had fun filming the rides (note to Gay: Turn the GoPro OFF when in the porta potty! HA HA HA HA HA HA ).
We had so much fun, we decided to plan a ride for the Gulf State Park in Alabama the last week of APril/first week of May in 2016.
Recumbent Road Trips are a BLAST!!!
