Hi Joe. The shortest and most direct loop to Watertown is 40.9 miles if you don't mind riding Cainsville Pike up and Statesville Pike back down. They will have more traffic, and I tried to use back roads as much as possible on the main route (and avoid roads that are in bad shape).

Here is a link to the 40.9 mile loop:

I'll bring a cue sheet for this route Saturday.

If others who are more familiar with these roads have a better 40 mile route suggestion, let me know.

One could add a little adventure even with gps by cutting short on Jug Creek etal. There's one good hill on Jug.

There's no adventure in having your every move plotted & tracked on the new screen of life version 3.0.

Awesome Bill! Thanks for both the advance copy of the map/cue sheet and the GPS track!

dang - hate we're going to miss your ride Bill - looks like a great one. Steve and I are staying in Nashville tonight after the Fleetwood Mac show!

We'll catch you next time - and I'll have your t-shirt.

Sarah and Steve,
Thanks for saving me yesterday!!

I owe you for that!! Mark Bartleson, too!

You all are awesome!!

Have a super time at the show. I had no idea Fleetwood Mac was going to be here.

Love you all!!

Yvonne
