Day 1: 11/6/23: Athens, AL to Coalmont, TN

This trip is about our granddaughters, Harbor , age 2, and Eden, who is due to make an appearance on 11/16/23 in Pennsylvania.  The plan is for me to bike to Harrisonburg, VA, meet Lisa there on 11/14, then ride with her in the car to PA on 11/15.  That all could change with an early appearance by Eden.

Today was a beautiful day with a nice tailwind most of the day.  I left the house before sunrise because I knew it was going to be a long day.  Pic below of the Limestone County courthouse in Athens before sunrise.

Today's ride was relatively flat until mile 91, when I came upon about a 2 and 1/2 mile mountain climb.

Tonight I'm staying with Ron and Pat, friends of ours who taught both our children in elementary school in Chattanooga.  Ron made a great tasting pizza for our supper.  Pic below of us all enjoying Chef Ron's homemade pizza.

Total miles today: 106.9
