Junkman would route up Hill Creek instead of the HWY but you are only on the Hwy for a mile. Captn Corley can comment on the shoulder. There used to be an old guy on Hill Creek that worked the hillside with a mule team.

What time might you be leaving?

what will be the pace of the long ride?

pace will be anywhere from 14 - 18, depending on who shows up and how big the hills are.

Short Ride: Parsley's Market - Hwy 70S & Hwy 64

Long Ride: Woodbury
There used to be 1 on Hwy 70 where you turn R. I think it is closed.

There was a paved route down from Sugar Tree Knob. I haven't ridden it for years & don't remember exactly which road. The County has paved most so enjoy the gravel if you can find some. It is from a bygone era.

As long as you don't take the 1st L after crossing HWY 53 (to Gassaway), you'll be sort of on route. Adventure, you going?

See if the jog onto Peeler Hill is good. Jim Town to the bottom isn't paved but I thing Peeler is.
