<p class="MsoNormal">In 2019 three of us were riding just south of Vanzant. It was about this time of year and the temperature was approaching 60ish. Most of the roads were stained whitish from the salting of the previous weeks. Even though there was no snow
to be seen, we came around a mountain to find ourselves in the middle of an ice flow that crossed the road. While we were only traveling in the 30 mph range, the sudden change in conditions resulted in two of our members sliding and taking a fall. They were
shaken, bloody nose, bruised shoulders and minor damage to the bikes was the result. Thank God there was no oncoming traffic otherwise things could have been much different.
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">The point here is, while we at the shore see no ice, in the mountains the nights are still below freezing and even though you don’t see ice, it can still exist. Ride safe.

<p class="MsoNormal">"I did a ride on Tuesday and Wednesday on the RT and today did a 17 mile bicycle ride. The snow is basically gone, but I did run across some random piles of salt on blind curves. The potholes and gravel are pretty bad in some areas too.
It's fine to ride, but you have to keep your speed down and your wits about you. If you pull over on a shoulder you need to watch the gravel too. Hopefully in the next few weeks the cars will push the ugly stuff to the side of the roads."<o:p></o:p></p>
