Saturday, Sept. 11 - 8:00 A.M. - 20th Anniversary of Terrorist Attacks
Silence Speaks Volumes
Hillsboro Elementary School, 5412 Pinewood Rd., Franklin 37064

For this Saturday, R.J. will lead us from Leipers Fork with a different combination of familiar westside and southside roads.  Since it is the 20th anniversary of 9/11, R.J. requests that all riders please observe total silence from the start of the ride for the first five miles.  Then at the top of the Garrison climb, we will all regroup and have another moment of silence.  The silent start is to honor the first responders and victims from 9/11 on the 20th anniversary of that horrible event that no one will ever forget.  Then we will basically restart the ride.

The full route is 58 miles, and the forecast is great!  The rest stop is at the Burwood store at mile 31.  While the roads are all quite familiar, R.J. has arranged them in a new and interesting way, with just over 3,000 feet of climbing.  Here is the cue sheet:
