26 November 2012

Still lacking legs and (worse) motivation, but I did get out there over the holiday, if not for long rides at least for some pretty good quality rides on new roads. Drove to ATL on Wednesday, stopping in N. Augusta on the way. Started riding from Key Bridge following the Due West permanent route, but banged a left at Liberty Hill on to Upper Mill Road for a change of pace. That brought me to Parksville where I picked up Price's Mill Road briefly then got on the Connector loop. Followed that frontage road deal past the race track, got on 23 for a very short bit in Modoc, the left on 23 and back to Key Road via Cold Springs Road.

The cemetery I missed last time


Upper Mill Road


A diversion


And back on the road


Past the Modoc Speedway


And on a little gravel to make life interesting


A view. Not a mountain view, but a view nevertheless


And a short bit of gravel back to the car


And a beer on Key Bridge

Geez. Slow month. Bailed on SWANK at Aid 2 due to a complete lack of legs and an even more complete lack of motivation. Some days it doesn't pay to get out of bed.



But I did get in a little tandem ride the other day. That was fun.

Been a quiet couple of weeks here with nothing big happening. But I've got a few photos from small things, and they're adding up. A couple of paddles, one with Tom and one with Holle, and a couple of bike rides. Loving the San Jose--ride out to the fort, ride the Palmetto trail for a while, then turn around and come home. Pretty fun.













Next weekend is Swank. Its gonna hurt.
