Even in the midst of a worldwide health crisis, the Sea Scouts can find an opportunity to get exercise and enjoy one another’s fellowship, all while maintaining distance as recommended by the Surgeon General. The fairly new Virginia Capital Trail is a paved route from Williamsburg to Richmond, passing through some of the most historical landmarks in Virginia. Bicycles were the preferred mode of travel for our group. So they readied their bikes, packed some snacks, filled up their water bottles, and headed west from Chickahominy Riverfront Park. This part of the trail parallels Virginia Route 5 through a wooded section, which was immune to the 16 knot gusts. After a brief stop at Sherwood Forrest, the crew turned around and cycled back to Chickahominy. A total of 19 miles. Don't forget about ice cream at the finish line.
