Same thing for this local store along the way.
The first stop was at the Ocoee #1 Dam... the blue water of Parksville Lake turning cooler with each passing day.
I always thought of the Dam as the start of the good riding. This road takes me there. Again, almost no cars or bikes.
I pretty much had this to myself all day. I was King today, it was all mine... only an occasional intruder into my world.
Every meter of road I traveled was delicious with color, magnificent views, and knowing it would probably be my last of the season, I savored each sight and burned it into my memory.
Soon it would be time to start the climb to my goal, which was Oswald Dome Road and it led up into the blue sky. The road really reminds me of the Gap in a way, except it doesn't have a center line and is a constant climb. However, there are four stops to be made up there and this picture is the first one.
The view seems to go on forever up there... sigh
