This ride is on pavement and gravel roads.
Interested in gravel riding? Indian Creek in the Red River Gorge is the perfect place to start. This route is as flat as you can find in the RRG. Great scenery and hard-packed gravel roads (most of the time) which allow you to learn the feel of gravel riding, pothole avoidance, proper tire inflation for gravel riding vs normal road riding pressure, etc. From Indian Creek we'll ride pavement to Spaas Creek Road for some more gravel before turning around and heading back to Martins Fork. Riders can choose to do just Indian Creek or both Indian and Spaas Creek roads as this is an All Comers ride. Ride leader plans B/C+ pace.
Martins Fork Trailhead is the first trailhead on the left after passing through the Nada tunnel. In the event the parking is full, there are designated parking areas just up the road and another on the right after crossing the iron bridge.
