Paw Paw Was a Rollin' Stone!
Cecil Lewis Park at Trinity, 3680 North Chapel Road, Franklin 37067
For this Saturday's ride, President R.J. LoCurto will lead an outstanding ride from Trinity Park. There are options of 57, 45, and 36 miles. The 57- and 45-mile routes begin at 7:00, while the 36-mile collegial ride starts at 8:00. All three routes early on do the glorious run on Burke Hollow, followed by the gradual climb up Sanford. The longer routes traverse the ups and downs of R.J.'s favorite road, Paw Paw Springs! The 57-miler then goes by Cox and Taliaferro to a rest stop at College Grove at mile 38, after which it climbs the back sides of both Owen Hill and Gosey Hill. The 45-miler goes from Cox onto McDaniel and Meeks before tackling the back side of Gosey Hill. It has a rest stop at the market at the turn onto Peytonsville Road at mile 35.
Meanwhile, the 36-mile route, dubbed Sanford & Some, begins at 8:00 and goes from Cox onto McDaniel and Meeks and manages to take the easy way down Gosey Hill Road. Amy Crownover will lead this ride and watch after folks at a 14-16 mph pace.
