Day 94: Tuesday, July 12, 2011

The staff at the Adventure Cycling Association world headquarters was warm and welcoming.  Winona gave us a tour of the offices and described the history behind many of the numerous bicycles they have on display.  It was fun to look through the pictures of the bicyclists who have visited the office and pick out the people we have met. We bought a Tidewater Potomac Heritage Bicycle Route Map.  This route is a 378-mile loop that begins at Union Square in Washington, DC then runs along both sides of the Potomac River until it reaches the Chesapeake Bay.  A trip across the Chesapeake to Smith Island, then back to Point Lookout allows the loop to be completed.  Any one of the maps will make great day trips that I can enjoy with my friends once we get back home.  

Tom, Amanda and Beth greet us in the front office
