Bicycle Ride Across the Highland Rim - Read Article
Bicycle Ride Across the Highland Rim
September 18, 2017 | The 2017 ‘Bicycle Ride Across Tennessee’ began Saturday September 16 at Montgomery Bell State Park. This year’s route, on the first two days, is across the Western Highland Rim geologic province of Tennessee. The riders will travel south to David Crockett State Park through this hilly section of the state. Although mostly made up of limestone, these hills were protected from erosion by the resistant chert that is layered over the limestone. Streams in this area usually run clear over gravelly beds. The forested hills, valley farms, and picturesque streams will make this a beautiful ride. -
