Hey guys - here is a very common trail that I ride. It's about a 20 mile loop fairly close to the park - and it was one of my first!

Climbing the Hills
Saturday's ride proved to be a challenging course for a biking beginner - 25 miles of hills through Atlanta's neighborhoods! Being only my third TNT group ride, I was a little nervous to start out - and to make things even more difficult, I got separated from the rest of the group only 10 miles into the ride.
I found another beginner teammate, Cindy, along the way, and she and I realized that we would HAVE to push hard to make it to the end of the ride by ourselves. When we finished the ride successfully, our confidence was booming! Though we had our challenges - getting lost a few times along the course and giving ourselves an impromptu lesson on how to fix a broken chain - we finally got more comfortable with using our gears and conquering hills without falling over.
We're already 1/4 of the way through finishing a Century Ride!
