Northern Routes

I took advantage of the great weather today and set out to ride my old northern routes. I used to ride north of town almost exclusively when I lived in the apartment, but haven't managed to go that way since I moved back in December. Now that I've worked out a way to get to these routes from my house, I plan on getting north of town more often in the future.

Just one of the many hay fields north of town.

These silky pockets are caused by web worms. They are quite common this time of year.

I think I saw 4 or 5 cars once I got away from town.

This is a private air strip on Ridge Road.

Harvest time.

I stopped to feed the horsed on Ridge Road.

Kudzu. This stuff grows about 12 feet per year and can completely envelop everything.

Lots of smooth pavement and no cars.
