The bridge design and hill in the background are making me think it is...

This is just south of Cumming. I never knew this bridge existed until another ride this summer. This is over the North River, on 33rd Ave. I get there via Ford St, but this is just NE of where the GWT crosses Filmore St.

Ha- I know exactly where it is- I rode over this bridge on Saturday during the 24 Hours of Cumming 100k race!

I converted a practical bike to a non-practical one

Old enough, hmmm?
Okanagan Rail Trail First 26 km along two beautiful lakes on gravel, then 8 km on pavement and another 17.5 km back on gravel.
Perfect for time trialing — in my case checking the week over week improvements.

The road heading right is a long winding climb up from one of the major rivers in my area.
The road to the left is a straight farm road that just goes up and down over and over for miles.

It’s been 3 months since my last ride. Have been dealing with a back/shoulder/arm injury, but it also meant I skipped riding the hottest months, so silver lining? Did mostly single and double track and came across this nice gesture.

Post Your Gravel Ride
Did not see any ride post threads but did not look far. So I’ll start one even if some don’t consider a Domane a gravel bike.
After 2 month of riding the road with my Domane I got for a Madone warranty replacement I put back on the 32mm Bontrager R2 unsuitable tires for a gravel ride. Well a mixed ride I found on PBA Facebook and Map my GPS. Missed a look with the confused Garmin 1030 so it was only 17 miles instead of about 25 miles. The 32mm tires worked but a little wider would be smoother. Road from Harwood Mills in Newport News Va up to Yorktown and back. There was some single track. Here are a few pictures of the glorious day.
The order messed up.
Little straight gravel. Not just dirt.
Yorktown Battlefield. Paved here.
Off Richneck Road on the way back.
On the way out.

Toss pics of future rides here- it's a long thread that's cool to scroll thru too.
