Classic 3-Gap Ride
Riding the mountain roads in North Georgia for the first time each year is like an annual rite of winter for me. Spring is just around the corner so it wasn't to tough weather-wise but the inclines still require a lot of energy to ascend on a bicycle.
Stephen, Mike and I started from the famous stone pile and rode up and down Neels, Wolfpen and Woody Gaps. It was not a consistently hard effort and I waited at the tops to regroup, but we still managed to complete the 35-mile loop and 3000-feet of climbing in just a shade over two hours.
