<\/a><\/p>\nBelieve it or not even though it was so cold we were able to sleep through the night. Mehrdad in general has higher resistance against cold temperatures. Me on the other hand, I am always freezing and need specialized equipment like the Columbia\u2019s OMNI HEAT<\/a> base layers and the Marmot<\/a> sleeping bag, they are expensive but they do keep you warm.<\/p>\n We had breakfast, pancakes, sausage and coffee offered by the campgrounds for a low price, I got double saucesage because Mehrdad is vegetarian. I can feel the pounds going up.<\/p>\n We packed everything back up on the bike and took off to Boone through the Blue Ridge Parkway.<\/p>\n As usual the ride was beautiful.<\/p>\n We found some friends along the way.<\/p>\n Reached Boone had lunch at a cute sandwich place called “Our Daily Bread”<\/p>\n …and took off for Blowing Rock.

The places with the hand drawn stars are referred as overload campgrounds. The red dot marks more of less where we stayed.\u00a0 By now we are experts setting up camp.
