TBA LOADED TOURING Boldly go where few have gone and to seek out new adventures Tom Lilley Doug Richendollar, Jessica Horton, Paul Gordy, Bruce Drees, Tom Sare and myself made up the first TBA Loaded Tour, a 100 mile round trip in October from Bowers Hill to Chippoaks State Park with a overnight at the campground. This was a trial to see if there was any interest in Loaded Touring. It turned out to be a successful trip with perfect weather and a lot of fun. We also learned a lot from each other comparing equipment and stories as we hung out at the campground. We also had a great sag wagon hosted by Doug’s friends, Gale and Bill Bryant. Gale and Bill arrived by truck and prepared a wonderful dinner and breakfast. November’s ride was from Wal-Mart on Dominion Blvd. to Merchant Millpond State Park across the state line in North Carolina a 96 mile round trip with several stops. The die-hards were Fran Adams, Jim Cruse, Bruce Drees, Hal Hamberg, Jessica Horton, Don Musacchio, Doug Richendollar , my wife Carol and myself. The cold weather made this a challenge, especially at night, when it did get a little cold but we all enjoyed ourselves with laughing and telling stories after a delicious dinner and breakfast served by Gale and Bill Bryant. The trip was much easier not having to carry the meals. The Park rangers and facilities were great. If your interested in Touring contact one of our TBA Touring Members and check out the following I guaranteed you will not regret it. www.crazyguyonabike.com/doc/stetsonxc07
