The Ride the East - Central Tour will begin with cycling from DC as we cross the Arlington Memorial Bridge and pick up the Mt. Vernon Bike Path, past Arlington and Alexandria Virginia. From Fredericksburg, we'll pass many Civil War Memorial sites, take some time and explore the history. As we continue south through rural Virginia, you'll see the cotton, peanut and tobacco fields and many stately Plantation homes. You're sure to see farmers beginning the fall harvest. As we cycle through the countryside, the terrain will flatten out to almost no terrain at all. Next we'll stretch our legs across North Carolina, head east to the ocean and land in North Myrtle Beach, South Carolina.
