On Friday evening Gary and I met a couple who are biking with the “Bike Virginia” Group. The couple was from Reston. They were Bruce Wright and Kerie Hitt. This was the first time Kerie had ever met anyone with the Hitt last name outside of her own family. The group is 1200 people strong and they stopped at Amissville Baptist Church on Tuesday morning for a rest stop on their way to Sperryville.
The 1200 people doubled the population of Amissville fqr several hours during their trip. The youth at the church prepared trail mix, apples, banana bread, peanut butter and jelly sandwiches and water for the entire group, it was a sight to behold. The parking lot was full of bikes and people. It was a great experience for all involved. Z.
