Put together a route which took me a lot further out from the house and on roads I hadn’t ridden before. A coolish and cloudy day but I loved the route and the area. 107 miles with 5700’ of climbing. I had a couple of detours. One was for a road that was closed. The second one was to route around a dirt road which I’d assume was paved. Ride with GPS can be very helpful with developing routes. It’s nice not to have to follow cue sheets.
My route called for turning onto this gravel road. Figured out a detour.
Today’s route included a portion of the Southern Uwharrie Bike Route.
Crossing the Rocky River but the water was up and covering the rocks.
A very small community.
This is why it’s called Vottonville.
The most unusual mail post I’ve seen out riding. Wonder if these are available via Amazon???
Oakboro Depot
