Gravel Ride to do some day


Link to the fun gravel ride.  I have spent some time over the last few years looking for a way to map gravel/dirt road rides and have pretty much failed.  I got this one off of Ibikempls.  It is called the gravel Wine ride I think.  I think just getting out and riding may be the best way to find and learn of good gravel/dirt roads.  This route will be a good start to my own course. 

Below are some pics from our Disney trip.   It is not what we will likely see on this gravel ride.



Sure was a long neck on that Giraffe.

long and serpentine. How about doing your gravel ride Sat. Truckers love gravel.

Sounds good to me. Could be a twenty niner or more likely a road ride. John, Sean, Steve, Greg Lemond?

Ok I messed up here. This ride only has a little gravel. I google street viewed most of it and I was wrong about it. Still looks pretty fun but I think we could do just as well with almost any route in my area. It is all good for a road ride.

Ok the above address is for a map I created in the same area. It is about 80% gravel and looks very fun.
