Jim and Amy have chosen to start this week's ride at Granny White Park, near the south end of that road, next to Brentwood Middle School and High School.  In light of the cold morning, the ride will begin at 9:00.  The park has plenty of parking.  From there the Long route will head west over the easy side of the Manley hill, through High Point Ridge, up Stillhouse, along Big East and Poplar Creek, up Griffith, and through Pasquo on the way home, for a total of 51 miles.  Meanwhile, the Short route of 36 miles starts out the same way but goes up the ramp onto the Natchez Trace Parkway and then directly north to Pasquo.  Here are the cue sheets:

Granny's Special II - Long route - 51 miles - GPS

Short route - 36 miles - GPS
