Bub One led a good ride last week, so we are going to let him try again this week. This time it is an adventure up Stage Coach Road near South Pittsburg. The ride starts from Haletown rolling at 8:30 EDT. About a 25 minute drive from downtown Chattanooga. There should be parking by the boat ramp at the former Anchor Inn site. https://goo.gl/maps/P5aWJxfM6dR2oxXV7

Lunch afterwards at Succotash. No stores between Miles 20-52 so plan accordingly. At one time, Orme Mountain Church of God (Mile 45.2) had a water spigot, but that’s all.

Yep early Bubbas you guessed it!  Hillz (Whole Foodz) at 4:00.

By popular demand, early Bubbas do the Hillz again this week.   Roll from Whole Foodz at 4:00.   (Bring a buck for the lemonade stand!)

 

No TB ride this Saturday.

Early Bubbas head for the Hillz again this week.  Whole Foods @ 4:00.

No TB ride this Saturday.

Roll from Mike’s Hole @ 8:30 for the old 3-state metric.   Over Suck, East Valley, 299.   Regroup at the store after the descent, at the bait store (refuel), and at the end of 299.   A metric and 3500 feet but add the nature center loop to get more up (high achievers may even climb to Sanders).

Heat index of 97 so early Bubbas have opted for the cooler route.  Roll from Whole Foods at 4:00 for Hillz.

Early Bubbas get the worm in Red Bank this week.  Roll from Old BiLo @ 4:00 for Hotwater loop.

Another scorcher this Sat with a heat index of 97 by 2:00.   So here are those words which always bring a wry smile to Flymanator:  EARLY START.    With the early start we’ll split the driving distance and roll from Mike’s at 8:00.  Over the toe, Creek Rd, up 136.  Regroup at Sunset to make the quick trip over the top a bit safer and then down 136 with a store stop at the bottom.  Back Marble with the Dry Valley kickers at the end although we can come back the easy way if it’s really cooking by then.
