Take Hwy. 96 west from Franklin, turn left on Westhaven Blvd. at the traffic light, veer right onto State Blvd., and then take the very first alley on the left into the parking lot

During Prime Season we continue our Sunday rides from Westhaven.  Here is a map to guide you to the parking lot at Westhaven.  Westhaven Blvd. is directly across Hwy. 96 from the end of Old Charlotte at the big sign for Gentry Farm.  There's a traffic light there.

Because of the cool mornings now, the starting time has been moved to 9:00.  On most Sundays, we ride out Boyd Mill and then take the tough climb up Parker Branch. At the end of that road, various groups form for different distances and routes. It is easy to do a 25- or 30-mile route, although most regular riders will add miles along the way. The most standard 40-mile route goes up Parker Branch and then takes Hargrove, Pinewood, and Bending Chestnut over to Fox's.  Then it travels down Greenbriar, enjoys idyllic South Lick, and uses the Old Trace to get to the fun run on Davis Hollow.  Then it comes home on Leipers Creek to Boyd Mill.  Sometimes we start on the Old Pancake route over to Leipers Fork.  At the start we will establish the approximate distance that various groups intend to ride.  Many riders will do a 50- or 60-mile ride, improvising the route as they go along.  And sometimes we do something entirely different!

Here's a common 42-mile route that includes the nice new pavement on Old 96!
