It will be a all day nothing but backroads and state 2 laners.We'll ride some of the backroads around beautiful Norris Lake then on to Hwy.116 thats runs from Lake City to Petros,TN. This piece of asphalt is awesome with curve after switch back after curve.It also runs right by Brushy Mountain State Penitentiary home to the late James Earl Ray.Some may remember that Ray escaped Brushy in 1977 but the mountain's was too much. Straight up and down and full of rattlesnakes.We'll ride the little known curve filled roads along the Obed River.
