Saturday, July 30 - 8:00 A.M.
Fairview Fandango!
Natchez Trace Parkway, Mile 440 Parking Lot (2 miles south on the Trace from the terminus at Pasquo)

For this Saturday Tony Pile will lead us on a nice circuit from the Natchez Trace all around Fairview! The ride will start at 8:00, with options of 36 and 54 miles. From the parking lot at mile 440 on the Trace, there's a fun descent down to Pasquo to get the legs moving. Then it’s up and over to Poplar Creek and the South Harpeth River. After a short Hors Categorie climb on CCC Road it’s rolling terrain to the feed zones in Fairview, then a drop downhill to Fernvale. The short route heads back via Old Harding, the silky-smooth new pavement on Hester Beasley, and Pasquo, while the long route tackles Old 96, goes down the fun descent on Wilkins Branch, and finishes with 10 miles on the Trace back to the parking lot. Both routes have rest stops at markets in Fairview. Here are the cue sheets:
