| On 10/4/08, 8 riders did this loop. We overshot two planned turns in the process (missing street signs out here). The first being S. Ridgeview North of Lutrell. We stayed n 61 instead. The second being Zachary Ridge... We took Mackey instead... Which turned out to be a very nice road! Great ride all around |

| This is a fairly strenuous ride with lots of hills, especially on the 5 mile stretch between Loves Creek and Black Oak Ridge. That said it's also a beautiful ride through the country with farms and mountains in the distance. For this map, I went ahead and included my home commute so it may be useful as a complete riding loop for someone else. |

| This combines my long east and west commutes to make a nice riding loop. It's mostly low-traffic neighborhoods, some country farm areas on the east side of town. Basically it starts by the Fountain City duck pond, goes out to Love's Creek, up onto Buffat Mill for a stretch, through some old neighborhoods, around the far end of Sharps Ridge (Sharps Pass) on the west, then back through some neighborhoods to the duck pond again. The elevation changes are mild to moderate. |
