Seven women from Blacksburg are spending ten days bicycling all 600 miles of Skyline Drive and the Blue Ridge Parkway.  They aren’t doing it for charity, but just wanted a challenge for the summer.  They range from 14 to 59 years old and say its a been a life changing experience so far.  Each day, they cycle between 50 and 70 miles.
