52 miles / 623 total (and off the end of map 1!)
Woke up to lots of rain, got tent packed away and hid under the shelter eating breakfast. Went for second brekkie after just 2 miles with the group of 3 TAers I'd rode with previously. Camping options weren't great so decided to splash out on a cheap hotel in Christiansburg, which just happens to be the end of map 1. One of the others wanted to go past an outdoors shop to pick up wet weather kit, I tagged along to pick up some new sandals as the poppers on mine broke the previous evening (expect these in the post sometime Tim!)
Rained on and off all day, but the riding was pleasant and, as ever in Virginia, rolling hills.

I also passed by a hunting shop and managed to pick up some Mace, bring on those dogs of Kentucky!
