Overall Difficulty:

The overall route is extremely beautiful with lightly traveled roads.  The A pace has several climbs that will catch your attention and the B and B/C routes will have less climbs but will be just as beautiful.

 

 

 

Details:

I would argue that this is the most beautiful ride that the Bluegrass Cycling Club has to offer, but of course I'm biased to the ride.  There is very little vehicle traffic but lots of wildlife to watch out for, to include deer, turkey and goats.  This is a challenging ride but well worth your effort and extremely rewarding.

Afterwards, feel free to discuss your ride with us over a meal at Country Boy Brewing from the different weekly food truck and a beverage.

WE LOOK FORWARD TO SEEING YOU!!!
