A bike ride through 1,500 miles of America with Mike Harding
2: Virginia - Glory, Glory Hallelujah Mike takes to the hills of Appalachia to see history revisited. In Old Time Strasburg grown men turn trains into motels and in Harpers Ferry the ghost of John Brown stirs memories of the Civil War. But it is the music of Woody Simmons which haunts Mike when he meets the champion fiddler and shares 'Whiskey before breakfast'. A melody which lingers during his night under canvas.
