Subject: RE: Attn GA BT'ers- Columbia County Bike TourHave you done that thing!!! We went this last year and all I have to say is, "Damn, I am glad it came a blinding snowstorm/ icey road thing"! We all drove to the top and got checked in, lingered a few minutes because it was COLD at the top and the next thing you know it starts to snow. Harder and harder, you couldn't see 50 feet!! Roads up there started to ice over and the park service said ...ain't running today. We all drove back down to the foot and they let us run up if we wanted. I made it about a mile maybe a little more before I turned around. My shins hurt for over week!! It is agonizingly steep. Hill repeats up Stone Mountain anyone? It was fun though! They would have had hot soup for you at the top. |
