3 April 2013
Saturday I finally put the full CRP 200 together, starting not far from my house and looping north into the piedmont. A little dirt, a few historic sites, a Waffle House for lunch. Looking forward to making it an official permanent. Fun.
Entering Ridgeway.
Near the second control.
The confounded bridge
Second breakfast
A road to nowhere
Unless you count this as somewhere
Just after the hike-a-bike.
This would make an interesting rail trail
Serpentine stone wall on the right. Gonna have to figure out how to get a pic.
Not a ride without a cemetery
Control #3 near the nuclear plant. Desolate. And potentially unreliable--they were closed for the entire Easter weekend.
Accessing the Palmetto trail to cross the Broad River
First lunch
Palmetto trail. Nice. This is the halfway point, and what I built the route around.
Second lunch.
Second cemetery. Because two is better than one.
A little climb at mile 90.
Gonna have to work on this pic as well
A PED at Control #5 mile 110 for the final push
And done. Mile 127 and change. Now to get it RUSA Approved.
