Experience Cycle NC First Hand |
Liz Zearfoss, a Capitol Network employee, and her husband Jim participated in the 14 day quest across North Carolina called Cycle North Carolina, organized by North Carolina Amateur Sports. The journey began on Saturday, October 3 in Murphy, NC and ended on Sunday, October 17 in Manteo, NC
The event began alongside the majestic skylines, waterfalls and streams of the Blue Ridge Mountains, continued into the rolling hills, red clay and hardwoods that make up the NC heartland, and finished along the coastal plains, passing numerous lighthouses and the ocean. The Zearfoss’ were kind enough to share photos from their journey so visitors could share in their adventures.
