New Year’s Day 2025

Bubba will celebrate the new year with a ride featuring Atena Mountain Road (paved but still a pig trail) out of Whiteside, TN. Robert’s Mill has become too busy to take a big group up, but feel free to celebrate our old tradition on your own. Roll at 9:00 from St. Elmo Food City. The route goes: over the toe, out Creek Rd, over Morganville Ridge, down Murphy Hollow, up and down Atena Mtn Rd, and back via 299 and Old Wauhatchie. 38 miles and 2,900 ft. No planned store stop, but there are several stores on the route. The route is fully road bikeable, but use caution on the Atena Mtn descent.

 

When: 9:00 a.m. on Jan. 1st
Where: St. Elmo Food City
Stats: 38 miles and 2,900 ft

Elites will roll with TB at 9am from the St Elmo Food City, but take a shortcut at mile 14.8 by bearing left on Friendship. Hard left on Boss Rd. at mile 16.1 will put you back on the TB route that rolls through Chickamauga and back through the Battlefield. See map for details 41 miles.

Sat. 11/23

Elites, plan on a loosely organized ride that will depart from Whole Foods at 9:30 (park in the far back corner). Start with the north Chattanooga Hillz and then head north for a Browntown/Levi loop. Boss will take charge and here’s a rough map of the route. However, the main detail is that the ride will conclude with lunch at Mike’s Hole in the Wall.

Sat. 11/16

Big Ralph will be leading the ride tomorrow. Roll from the Soddy Ball Fields at 9:30.  Roll up Retro Hughes and down Leggett for a 38 mile loop.

Sat. 11/9

Elites, still want some Bluegrass but without a climb? Roll from Manor House at Mtn Cove Farms at 9am but head north for the Hog Jowl/Kensington/Marble Top/Cove Rd Loop. Just under 40 miles. See map. Also the Gravel option is a good one too.

Sat. 11/2/24

A lot of Elites out this weekend but King will lead this one. Roll with TB from Red Bank Elementary at 8:30 and chase them until mile 23 where Elite’s will take a left on Hixson Pike when TB turns right. Return via the Soddy Ball Fields. 44.2 miles with no climb.
