Comments: Dr. Big Woods. Peachtree, Slate Quarry, Dr. Perry, Big Woods, Fingerboard, Kemptown Church, Bethesda Church.
Stayed too long on workaday Fingerboard. Saw two other cyclists near home on the way back. I guess not many like the hills, though the weather was iffy -- clouded up but didn't rain.
Saw a wild turkey up near the far end of Peachtree. Also saw a bluebird, and heard a rooster crow. |
