FINI

We made it.  The 60 mile closing leg today included a climb to Balsam Gap at 6035ft, the highest point on the Parkway.   We descend a couple of thousand feet and then add back two more climbs of about 7 miles and 4 miles respectively before we  enjoy an incredible descent to mile marker 469, the end of the Parkway.

We have logged over 470 miles and climbed over 48,000 feet.   We will blog one last time tomorrow with our lessons learned and some additional stats, just for our own fun.   But tonight, we are celebrating the conclusion of our tour and tomorrow we celebrate our leaders 50th birthday.   Thanks for reading.  This has been great fun.
