Took the Black Phantom out for a quick spin around the block. Made it back before it rained. Thanks to @bobcycles for the restored Phantom seat. It is great.
A 54 mile trail fro Richmond Virginia to Jamestown Settlement / Williamsburg area Thursday, November 8th , 2018 ....We started our venture about 11 miles south of Richmond in Varina ( Henrico Co.) . My brother in law on his 2016 Diamondback and me on my '73 Schwinn Varsity. As you can see we have our pro-bicycling clothing on, My Brother in law looks like a lumber jack and I look like the great pumpkin.
If you are a history buff and enjoy reading the Historical Land Markers ..this is the trail for you. There is a bunch.
We decided to go off the trail a mile or so and check out the Shirley Plantation . here we are outside the entrance, having a smoke break
The Main house of the plantation
Done with our visit to the plantation, we are on the road again to get back on the trail
Great food , drink(s) and people here. Cullen ( the owner) is a super nice and down to earth guy.
Stores along this route are few and far between.
The trail has bike maintenance
Well this is what the rest of the journey looked like. Not bad for two old farts 46 miles or as pro cyclist say 80 km. My ass is sore as junk riding on that "S" seat
changed out the gooseneck to the double adjustable for more height. rides way more comfortable. gooseneck seems to go with the bomb! pictures seem dark-the smoke from norcal fires making the sky seem overcast.
