Day 7 - Sumter, SC to Columbia, SC

Today marks the beginning of my three day homecoming tour! I'm so excited to have my Bike & Build world and my regular world meet. 
Today's ride was the first where we really encountered hills. I definitely used my legs more today than I have any other day. Another challenge in today's ride was a significant increase in traffic since we rode to a bigger city.  
It seemed appropriate to take a picture at Chain Gang Road while holding up gang Bike & Build gang signs. 
My first stop upon arrival to Columbia was Carolina Cafe and Catering, my place of employment prior to leaving for Bike & Build. Pictured here are Caressa, Zack, and Desiree.  
My Dad and stepmom, Nora, met up with me at the cafe for lunch and a quick photo-op at USC. 
I had to stop by the Horseshoe to show my alumni pride: USC, forever to thee! GO COCKS! 
Then I walked just a couple blocks to the State House! I've got SC pride too, y'all. 
The last stop of the day was the 2-3, the house that I just moved out of. Fortunately, the leaders are letting me stay the night here, with my roommates, in my real bed!

The Catty Corner: 
Q: Why couldn't the bicycle stand alone?
A: It was two tired.
(Shout-out to Danielle for the great joke.)
