The CZ ride will leave from Barfield Crescent Park - Pavillion 7 at 8:30AM. The route is approximately a 19 mile loop. Heading out toward Miller's Grocery and then back to the park. The route is mostly flat with just a few small hills.
Cary,
I will be in Memphis this weekend, therefore, will not be able to join the ride......that is a great ride from Woodbury to Rock Island. Sorry I'm going to miss it this time around.

Cary, Any chance you could post the ride route for us? I'm not too familiar with that area and wouldn't mind looking at it ahead of time. Thanks. See you tomorrow.
Just got back from marking the confusing turns on Sat/s route and had dinner at Foglight's.
If you come for breakfast in the morning it's Joe's Place not Bill's.
Route for Sat. (59 mi.)
-Leave Sq L on Main
L- Hwy 53
R- Stones River Hill
R- Short Mt. Rd.
L- immediately on Judge Posser Hill Rd.
Join Hwy 287 N
L- Hwy 287 N follow all the way to Rock Island market
Thanks everyone -- that was an awesome ride today. Thanks to Cary for picking out some great roads.
P.S. Jim -- you were right, it was all uphill on the way back (until the last big/long downhill). My altitude chart looks like a capital M. At least it was a gradual uphill, and we had the winds at our back.
P.P.S For anyone interested, I showed 3,181 feet of climbing, or about 50'/mile.
Great ride- lucked out on the weather! The peach cobbler and ice cream at Rock Island market hit the spot! Hope it was as good for you all as it was for me!
I love the route!!
