Description: There is a restroom available by the tennis courts at the rear of the parking lot. We will take a quick rest stop at Tucker's Corner store 9.8 miles. We will take a bit longer rest stop at Talucah Beach 20.7 miles. There are no facilities at Talucah Beach but it offers a nice view of the Tennessee River. Final rest stop is at Curry Chapel 27.3 miles for a quick view of the majestic Belgian Draft Horses. No major climb but abundant hills and rollers. There are some sections of rough roads on the route. Use CAUTION on Highway 67 at 38.5 miles to the park turn at 38.7 miles, due to fast moving traffic.

Expectations: Please make sure you are familiar with the route. Bring a cue sheet and/or navigational device and have the phone numbers of the Ride Leader and the phone number of at least one friend. Be aware that cell phone service can be spotty. Text message may be the best way to communicate during the ride.
Expected end of ride speed is 14-15 mph but faster on flats and slower on climbs. Generally, riders are expected to stay together and watch out for each other. Be confident you can do the stated speed and distance.
