Day 40: Summerville to Charleston

We all arrived safely at the Wild Dunes Resort in Isle of Palms after an easy 33 mile ride which included a police escort through the heart of Charleston and great views as we crossed the Cooper River Bridge. Our final lunch was at Poe's Tavern on Sullivan's Island followed by an 8 mile celebratory ride to Wild Dunes where we dipped our wheels into the Atlantic. Jan and the Lucas' were there to greet me. There were smiles and hugs all around. Tonight we will continue the celebration with a nice dinner and slide show.
Tomorrow Jan and I fly to Arizona to settle in for the season. I'll take a few weeks off of the bike and start working on a challenge equally as daunting as biking across the country - improving my golf game!
I'll share some final thoughts on the trip and additional pictures in a final blog posting in a few days.
