May 2012 Day 11, smoother

Screen Shot 2012-05-28 at 9.54.59 PMNo drops today and no real excitement to speak of, but the route that was laid out was perfect playground for those that like to play in the curves. I really wasn’t expecting to see as many good roads that we saw today but by far, this was my favorite route in Kentucky so far.

We spent most of the day riding in and out of Daniel Boone National Park. One of the highlights was our stop at Laura River Dam. Here they amble parking for guest and they even built a beach with a volley ball net so all size kids could come an play. The swimming was roped off so you wouldn’t have to worry about the boaters running you over. It was a very nice area to bring the kids and family to enjoy the water.

We of course had no time to swim, so we got back on the road and enjoyed our riding through the rolling hills of Kentucky. Still hit a little dirt today, but nothing like the last few days.

Tomorrow is our last official day to ride and end up going absolutely nowhere. That’s not exactly true, but isn’t funny when you ride all day long and end up in the same location as when you left? I plan to visit the manufacture that made our trailer and maybe get a tour. Bushtec is located in Jacksboro, TN and since we are so close, why not drop by. Then we will visit Cumberland Gap and Middlesboro which is right on the boundary of KY and TN. We also plan to run through Pineville State Park and then just enjoy the roads. I have been warned that Rt90 might be a little rugged, so I guess I will carry a backup plan with me in it is to rough.
