...atleast by road bikes.....
I got out for a good scouting ride the other day- I had planned to ride down to the Pigeon Mountain preserve just west of Lafayette and ride an unpaved ridge over to Daugherty Gap (the Tour de Georgia went down that last year), into the cove and back towards home- unfortunately I got out a bit later then planned so had to cut it short- BUT, I was able to get there and ride the climb to the ridge- it was fantastic- a one lane, twisty chip and seal road that probably averaged 10-12% over the 4 1/2 K climb- all in the woods- deep in the woods.
The pictures are the sheer cliff I had just ascended and was about to go down and the second is the sign pointing to where I will visit in the future.
This has the makings of an epic ride- I will try to get out to in in a few weeks- hopefully it willbe as foggy as it was on this day.....

Sounds like fun. Are we going to be doing them big climbs?
Hope you had a great Christmas.

I'm so glad we didnt have to climb that.
too bad I put in 5 hours today and it was 40 degrees! haha. it's all good. I got to get skinny somehow, and seeing that im still eating like a horse, I figured the riding will get it off me. p.s. I just had a 540 calorie muffin from Einsteins Bagels... ouch!
similar to a climb Elwood took us on a month or so ago-a rock/gravel beast that reminded me of Brasstown when it kicked up towards the top.Straight up with the rear tire wanting to spin out.
