Saturday, Oct. 12 - 8:00 A.M. for all routes
Paw-Paw Pitiful Me!
Creekside Elementary School, 4239 Gosey Hill Road, Franklin 37064
Third time appears to be the charm to do this awesome eastside ride! President Emeritus R.J. LoCurto will lead us on an eastside route that is one of our favorites! Starting from Creekside Elementary School, the full route is 53 miles, with a short option of 33 miles. Both routes stay together until mile 17, when the Long riders divert left for the amazing views on Del Thomas and the ups and downs of Paw Paw Springs before a rest stop at Almaville. Short riders veer right at the split to enjoy the nice run down McCanless, Osburn, Trinity Road, and the descent on Crowder to end!
Once again we have a Collegial Ride option this week. Our usual leaders Amy and Bob are unavailable, so Drew Grasham and Scott Marshall have stepped up to be the co-leaders. The ride will proceed at a 14-16 mph pace on the 33-mile short course. There will be regrouping when appropriate. This option also starts at 8:00.
