Gravitt rode a recumbent bike like this one.
Long distance cyclist gets warm welcome here
Alan Gravitt, 64, recently rode his recumbent bicycle from Lookout Mountain to St. Marys. His route brought him through Barnesville and Griffin where, not surprisingly, he received a warm welcome and some assistance.
You can read about his experience here.
Was there a purpose or did he just do this for the heck of it?
sorry for myself, I read this article. He is so amazing and such a positive person. I wish there were more like him. Sweet wife for support too! I bet that helped.
