Ha! Thanks, bro. I don't know, we'll see. There's a good trail that runs right up to the base of Neyland Stadium in Knoxville. The "taser" will probably return for that one... 😆
It would be a pretty full day trip from TR. It's hard to say how many miles of trail I covered in this video, because I don't keep a cycling computer running...and the info that you find on the internet seems to vary a lot. I think I'd be safe in saying you can easily cover 20 miles of trail in the Athens area between Oconee River, Dudley Park, Firefly and the section that goes through the cemetery. Oh - and when you get to the Racetrac convenience store, look over across the 4-lane and you'll see that Waffle House. There's a whole other section of trail that begins beside that Waffle House. You can definitely make a full day of it.
I rode the trail at Sandy Creek last summer while my wife visited with a childhood friend who is a professor at UGA. I wanted to ride more of those trails, but ran out of time.
@@joyfultrails Phoenix City…I had some friends in college that were from that area. But we went to that “other college” so you may have banished them from your memory, even if you did know them! 😂😂😂
@@mountainsmoore3657 Ha! I actually have a good friend who graduated from Auburn. He lived here in Greenville for a good while … now has moved back to Auburn. These days I sort of have a grudging respect for Auburn. I hate Georgia and Tennessee more! 😆🏈
Woke Mob? I love riding and will be riding these trails after this, so I won't it about politics. I will say that if that was located near a different school, maybe it would have been burn down! Anyway happy riding! #AthensToSavannah #2024
My understanding is that it was at one time scheduled to be demolished by the railroad, but they came up with a plan where they would preserve the middle of the trestle but add new construction to either end, causing it to now be part of the Firefly Trail. The footage you see in this video is from about 2 weeks ago.

Very interesting 🚴♂️🤔.. Trestle is impressive.. It’s not that far away.. Thank You 🙂💫
You would enjoy spending a day there. I was pleasantly surprised by the trails. And there’s no shortage of post-ride watering holes 😏
Beautiful video of the trails. Our company, Nature Bridges, did all of the timber work on the trestle. Very proud of that project.
Great job! It really is a very enjoyable place to ride bikes.
Our trails are so pretty here, thank you for sharing your thoughts and ride with us. You are more than welcome back even tho you are a Bama fan.😀😀😀😀
Ha! Thank you very much. I thoroughly enjoyed my day in Athens.
This was great! That buzzer needs to be a regular in videos 😂

It's worth devoting a full day to it. I think so, anyway. I was pleasantly surprised that there was so much there.
@@joyfultrails I had about an hour to ride, was it.
BTW, what part of Bama are you from? We live in the far NE corner.
@@mountainsmoore3657 I grew up in Eufaula and Phenix City. Also lived in Evergreen for 9 months.

that trestle is gone or being removed by now?
