The Trail2388 viewsThe surface of Guest River gorge Railtrail is the best we have seen, bar none.

If you live in Tri-Cities area of Tennessee or SW Virginia and want to ride long distances I would suggest I-81.

If you want a short bike ride with breath taking scenery drive up to Coeburn, Va.

Guest River2386 viewsThis is typical of what you will see of the Guest River.

There are a couple of larger cascades that I could not get to due to time restrictions but, rest assured I will return in the Fall when the leaves are gone.

My Iron Man Is A Woman2386 viewsMy Granddaughter competing and winning a local bike race.

She is my Iron Man (iron Woman) because she finished Iron Man Louisville.

A little more effort and she may be able to qualify as an "Old Albatross" crew member.
