For Venture East, we took the same approach as we did for our Venture West trip. We stayed off the main highways for most of our ride and enjoyed the journey. We adjusted our route as we went and avoided daily destinations to do so. Once again, it worked for us and we experienced so much beautiful but diverse scenery and friendly people along the way.
We travelled 7960 km through the scenic roads of 5 provinces and 6 states. Evan is working on preparing an electronic map to show the places we have been and the roads taken.
We have suffered the dreaded Num Bum, but we now have a cure as provided by our friend Mick. He advises the following "hot bath and baby oil (external) in that order, followed by a chilled white wine(taken internally), repeat often until feeling returns".
I hope that the readers of our blog have enjoyed the journey with us.
Evan says our next Venture tour might include a ride along the Blueridge Parkway and Skyline Drive.
Regards,
Anne
