Day 176 Frederickburg, VA- Richmond, VA

It was a great day to ride into Richmond. The weather has been fantastic, the roads have been nice and most importantly Virginia drivers have been amazing!

Thank you Virginia!

About 15 miles out of Richmond I got caught in a parade in the village of Frog Level. I wonder where they got that name from? I didn’t see any frogs.

The Parade was great and after I stopped at a nice soul food restaurant for lunch where I met a great couple from Fredericksburg. It was fun talking with them about my trip and being inspired by their energy.

After lunch it was the last stretch to the hostel in Richmond where I’m going to break for a few days.

Today also was a treat as I was able to reunite with Andrew who I first met on the ferry from Newfoundland to Nova Scotia about a month ago. It was really cool to see him and meet his father. Andrew is an inspiring young man with a passion for doing and has a creative eye. It was great to be around his energy and encourage it as well.
