Fall 2025 Back the Byway Pre-Ride on the Southern Expansion Part1, recorded 09/13/2025

We don't get a lot of chances to ride the Southern expansion simply because it is so far from the Red river Gorge area where are most of the time. One of the trail leaders for the fall Back the byway meet invited us along for their pre-ride to scout the trail before the meet. We took advantage of the opportunity, trails we’d never been on cut some more trees out had a good, scenic not very hard but long day. Cave Branch, Cradle Bow and several gravel & blacktop in-between before stopping for lunch at the swinging bridge along the South Fork of the Kentucky river.Par2 coming soon.
