Spirit of Adventure

While it wasn't anything as epic as Christopher Columbus, David Livingstone or Sir Francis Drake, and it wasn't as important as a crusade or scientific exploration, it was a most enjoyable bike ride on some roads I've never been on before.

Todays 37+ mile cycling workout was especially good because the weather was so pleasant and I had a little extra time to explore some different routes. The really great "find" was Bragg Road which is a severely steep dirt road, with a creek crossing at the bottom (no bridge). This fine example of Georgia pavé runs from the top of Blackjack Rd over to Capitola Farm Rd.

Road bikes on steep and twisty dirt roads are not for the weak of heart, you must bring your spirit of adventure.
