Can you feed me?


Learning along the way, if you ask to get a feed at the race, be very specific about exactly what your talking about! Idea's could vary dramatically!

Nice ride on Saturday









Kari dropped me off across from the Mex restaurant in Ellijay and they went to preride Carters Lake. Rode from Ellijay-52-Gates Chapel and it poured down hard, leaving me soaking wet 30 min into the ride. Plan was to ride up Mountaintown, but changed after rain. Up FS90, right on ? too Potato Patch-Right all the way to Dally Gap (about 1 hour)-turned around back to Potato Patch (this has to be my favorite section of gravel road/very tough climbing), back down to top of Bear Creek, all the way almost to the parking lot, right turn up Pinhoti 1, Pinhoti 2 @ 90A lot, Pinhoti 3, right on 52, left on Pinhoti again up to Tatum Lead, Left on Tatum Lead for 30 min, back to 52 and up to Ft Mountain where Kari was waiting for me.




Great ride, will do it again sometime.
