Hillsboro Elementary School in Leipers Fork, 5412 Pinewood Road, Franklin 37064
Durk says it's going to be a bit cooler on Saturday, so he is giving us some hills to warm up! On the Long, 48-mile course, riders will start with the fun run on Bailey but soon encounter the uphill challenge of Perkins Road! After that, along the way they'll go up Mobleys Cut and later encounter the hard climb up Shoals Branch. At least they get a nice decent on South Lick! After a rest stop in Fairview at mile 33, they get to enjoy the smooth new pavement on South Harpeth before tackling Backbone Ridge. (It's the Up Perkins, Shoals & Backbone, down South Harpeth & Wilkins ride!)
Meanwhile, the riders on the 38-mile Short course go out the usual way on Garrison and Greenbriar to get to South Lick. Then they have the same route as the Long riders, reaching the Fairview rest stop at mile 23. Everybody comes home by Backbone Ridge and the steep descent on Wilkins Branch. (It's the Up Shoals & Backbone, down South Harpeth & Wilkins ride).
