The East Coast Greenway&#8217;s suggested route was still narrow (or non-existent) with a big ole rumble strip down the far side. None of us were the least bit inclined to ride this stretch of road. Randy and Beth did find a nice 10 mile path, Spanish Moss trail that we rode instead. It was similar to the other paths we&#8217;ve found in communities lately. It looks like there is a promising trend towards creating neighborhood multi-use paths that are quiet, tree-lined and away from all vehicle traffic. Although we&#8217;d really love to see paths that are much longer, perhaps one day that will be the case. For now, we are just thankful for any we can find!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery columns-3 is-cropped wp-block-gallery-2 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\"><ul

end of the trail, I switched with Leo and he rode the next 8 mile segment we found. Randy and Sarah rode both segments today &#8212; the second seemed to be very similar to the first. Nice! I drove up ahead a little with Beth to a shopping plaza where we met up with a high-school friend of hers.  Arrangements were made to have dinner at a &#8216;Foodies&#8217; restaurant, CRAVE, near our campground. It was delicious. We haven&#8217;t had a bad meal yet!!!
