Power Plant Ride

This is what we call a ride our Sunday morning group sometimes takes. The Gallagher power plant road is about the halfway point and today we stopped to drink our water and partake of the fruit that one of our group's members packed.

This ride started at our house in Deer Run, down County Line Rd, cut through Chapel Creek, then on to Graceland Church where we turn right and cut through more subdivisions and IUS to Green Valley Road, going all the way down to Cherry, making our way to Main street and down it a few blocks until we turn left onto the road where we then turn off down the road that goes to the Power plant. (Sorry I don't know the name of some of these roads.)

Took a break and had a great time listening to 3 men complain about their aging bodies and trying to find clothes to wear. Then back on the bikes and riding along the river, coming out at Spring Street, ended up going up Slate Run road and cutting off to Old Ford road, crossing Charlestown and up Klerner lane until we were back at the subdivisions and from there we backtracked. Total ride was about 25 miles.

We didn't leave our house until 9, which was kind of late, when we leave earlier on Sundays, this is a better ride with less traffic. But still a great fun ride, with very few hills to climb.

Post your ride ahead of time, say on Thursday or Friday and we might join in if the invitation is open.

Sure, the invitation is open, but I'll have to get myself to remember to post the ride plan beforehand. :)
