Video of Bike Ride: Back Bay National Wildlife Refuge, to False Cape State Park, down to North Carolina border, and back.
Total distance: 20.76 miles. Includes a few miles on the beach.
October 28th, 2023
Weather during ride: Mostly Sunny, lite winds, 70-82 degrees.
Due to the unusual, fantastic weather and the fact that Back Bay National Wildlife Refuge closes for the winter on Nov. 1st, the Back Bay portion was very busy. We didn’t see a soul the final few miles of the False Cape section.
The final stretch of 1.5 miles to the NC border involves walking/pushing your bike through sand. It ain’t easy.
