The bike starts at Darwin Wright park and will take you out to rural Anderson County along rolling hills and farm country, with a few climbs and some “big ring” action for you too.
Technical areas include Timm’s Mill – watch the descent, there is a hairpin turn at the bottom, and beautiful, historic downtown Pendleton – lots of quick turns.
You will pass Darwin Wright Park on your way back to T2 located at the Anderson Civic Center.
