Well, sorta. I rode to the dam and back five times last week, a couple
times venturing off on Central Pike to poke around. Note: this is not
recommended unless you're on a "adventure touring" bike like mine or
something sturdy, and have balls enough to ride in the nasty detritus
at the side of the road. I mainly grew up here and still don't
understand "'The Lake People" or even the area for that matter. I
mean--I went to the Publix out by Mt. Juliet, and Beautiful People
were buying fresh fresh figs. What the fuck? Donelson/Hermitage/THE
LAKE is a mystery to me. They have coin shops!
I actually got the gumption to climb the ramp out of the parking lot
from the dam and cross Bell road today. I don't think I've actually
seen a full on vista of the lake in ten years. I felt like I was in
Michigan or somethin! Very pretty. Maybe I'll get a rod and license
and catch me some heavy metals. Is there anything you really wanna eat
in that lake anyway? Rode over the dam, left on something Chapel road,
left on Central, then you take a quick left onto Lebanon and an
immediate right onto Stones river road to get back to the greenway.

I rode much of that route this afternoon. First trip over the new Two
Rivers bridge.
Started at the White Bridge Road trailhead of the Richland Park Greenway.
East to the entrance to the McCabe Park golf course, down to Murphy Rd.,
back behind the office building on the corner with West End, down Long
Blvd. into Centennial Park.
Due to some kind of concert/event they had the street south of the
Parthenon closed and the one west of the Parthenon one-way southbound
only. So you couldn't ride through the park from west to east. Had to
turn left onto West End. Which didn't work out nearly as difficult as I
feared. Rode a few blocks down West End then south/east into the Music
Row roundabout. East on Demonbreun where I learned the hard way the
Predators played today.
(75 degrees out. And they're playing *hockey*? That would never happen
in Wisconsin...)
Followed a horse-drawn carriage from the Hall of Fame down to 2nd Ave. S.,
dodging the curious wiener dog that nearly got himself killed twice...
