Sat. 5/4 RAIN DELAY

On a rain delay. Possibly roll at 11 but gravel option might not be a good one today
Weather permitting, Elites will do a shortened Gravel ride that includes the Daugherty Gap climb. See map for details. This ride will roll at 9:30 from Manor House and Mountain Cove Farms. Stay for Bluegrass Festival post-ride
However, if you never have I encourage you to join the Little River Canyon ride with TB. It’s one of the best routes around. If you want to shorten, drive to the top of the first climb and start and end from there.

TB Sat. 5/4 – RAIN DELAY

Rain Delay – Bub 1 will update around 9:30-10. Possibly 11:00 rollout
Instead of paying George to ride on your own roads, here’s an alternative for all the Cheapskate Bubbas! Stay after the ride for a world-class Bluegrass Festival (foreverbluegrass.com/) for FREE! Hot, homemade concessions available. (BYOB)
Both routes start at 9:00 am from the Manor House at Mountain Cove Farms (https://maps.app.goo.gl/6K6A9EBEA9V9esdw6). There is rain in the forecast, so check the weather before you head out.

Sat. 3/30

Roll out from the Old Bi-Lo/B&B Discount/Tuesday night Worlds location at 8:45 for a similar route as TB, but only one climb and 46 miles. If timed correctly we’ll merge with TB somewhere on Levi Rd. If not, oh well…..  Same route up Hotwater, Poe Rd, but then turn back right on Mowbray Mtn road at mile 27.6 to descend and back to the start. If you’re totally confused, look at the map.
