My brother and I were out OneWheeling tonight when we decided to ride over to our cousin’s house to see if he wanted to ride with us. He joined us and we rode through his neighborhood for a little while.

\n

As we were riding, he mentioned that Krispy Kreme was running a special today where you could get a dozen donuts for $0.13. We decided to try to make it there before they closed.

\n

On our way there, we found out the special required a purchase of at least one dozen donuts and only then would you get a dozen glazed for $0.13. It didn’t matter as we got there just 5mins before the posted closing time online but the employees decided to close early and they wouldn’t give us any donuts. We went to the grocery store instead and bought some candy.

It’s the end of the first day of our MABDR trip. We jumped on the route in Harper’s Ferry on section 5 this mornin and are 1/3 through section 6 as I sit here by the fire, drinking some warm tea out of my very flimsy rubber collapsible cup, thinking back on what a fantastic day it was. One full of plenty of humor and amazing scenery.

\n

One of the riders in our group had his mind set at leaving Charlottesville, VA at 6am this morning so we showed up at our meeting location around 5:40am. We pair all of our intercoms successfully after some trial and error and headed north.

\n

After approximately two hours of riding, we stopped for breakfast at a little cafe and then continued on to join the MABDR at section 5 in Harper’s Ferry.

\n\"\"\n\"\"\n

Only two of us went down today; me being one of those. I ruined yet another pair of nice pants to a tear caused by gravel and the blood that later soaked in to it. My bike sustained very little damage. One of the panniers was bent and became loose but it should last the rest of the trip until I have an opportunity to repair it when I return home.

I’m going to bed now so that I’m well rested tomorrow for the long, and possibly rainy, day ahead of us.
