OPs pic gives me big nostalgia today. Back in the mid-2010s I was living in my hometown, about 10k miles from where I live now, and I would take my mountain bike out almost every day for exercise o'er all the country roads and farmland and down random trails through the state parks. Was such a great time.
Bacon Hill Road was a killer on a hot summer day, but nothing compared to Gately Hill or Mt. Pleasant. Such good times. Now I'm out of shape and lonely and living in a boring Australian suburb :<
pic related, my shady rallying point between Clark Hill and Bacon Hill, there's one detour to avoid the pain and if you don't take the detour it's gonna be a whoooole different kind of day
