Today I drove to North Greenville University today to ride the Campbell’s Covered Bridge Ride. I ran into my friend Lou S there. I got dropped right off the bat and lost the group about a mile into the ride. I was behind a couple and they were riding slowly before I realized that the group was already out of reach for me. About 5 miles I was passed by a group being led by Lou that was doing the longer ride and had missed a turn. They were backtracking to get back with the 50 milers. About 7 miles out I started overtaking others that had fallen off the back. Since I was riding alone I stopped a few times to take pictures. I stopped at the bridge which was also our rest stop. There I refilled y bottles, ate a banana, and had a good drink. I took off on the 2nd half of the ride and I must have missed a turn several miles out. I passed a Citgo station that I didn’t remember and a Family Dollar. Pretty soon I came along a grass strip and a hangar with several airplanes. I checked my phone and plotted another course back to NGU to finish the ride. I crossed Lake Robinson on Fews Bridge Road and worked my way back to the school. There I rejoined my group and had a BBQ dinner. Lou came in while I was there and we chatted for quite a while.
