Nashville 90

One of the classic rides out of Bloomington, the Nashville is a 90 mile loop through the rolling countryside. It was a beautiful sunny day, low humidity, light winds, Angela, Randi and I set out at 8am. We rode 90 miles, approximately 3500 feet of climbing, saved 3 turtles, and received one middle finger wave from an irate motorist (he must not be a happy person).


Here's some of the ride in pictures:
ok, there is a lot of corn in Indiana...



at the bottom of the causeway at Lake Monroe



Lake Monroe from the causeway



a turtle we saved - he was all mossy, not very pretty, but he thanked us



one of the little bumps in the road



isn't he sweet!



WHO WAS EATING THOSE!!!!!!!!!!



the Story Inn, a must stop, as its the first real bathroom after leaving Bloomington, 50 miles into the ride.




That's it. We passed a great shot of 5 turtles sitting on a log at Lake Lemon, but by the time I got turned around to take the photo they all looked at me and waved goodbye before the plunged into the water. Party poopers!

It was a great ride! Ice cream is calling!!!!!!!!!
