Today was chilly so curious to see how the weekend will be. What dates are you looking to run? Saw the post on Mid-Atlantic for the run this weekend but its kind of outta the way.

It’s always colder the closer you are to home. The same thing when you have to use the bathroom suddenly increases the closer you get to a bathroom lol. Being cold in the mountains isn’t as bad as being cold right outside your home.

Yes expect 15 degrees outside, but also expect no wind and a kickass fire.

Last month was 470 mile round trip weekend warrior, keeping this one local one stop shop, camp life, keep the fire going and the whiskey pouring cause I ain’t leaving.

Bumping this to see if anyone is going to the cars and coffee tomorrow!
Should be a good turnout tomorrow, as the weather should be good compared to the last two weeks. Did we ever establish a rendezvous? The parking lot @ the BBT bank branch is walking distance to Katie’s Coffee Shop. Another option might be to reply to this thread when you arrive?

Sorry, had to roll out. To cold for the little guy
LOL, np, ya’ll we’re out there early. I had to warm up inside of Katie’s. BTW, the Angry Pumpkin Defender is for sale

Didn’t even notice my friend’s rig parked next to it, even w/ the Union Jack spread across the windscreen. Amazed by how many MD people braved the early subzero temps for C&C.

If I didn't have the pups then I would have headed in to warm up and grab a cup of coffee. Maybe next time. I now know that my smallest dog wouldn't be to keen on camping out in the cold!

What route are you taking? I'm in Richmond. If I go, I'll take 360 to 460 to Bedford.
