Ride Summary: Our last guest ride of the year belongs to the enigmatic Daniel. Follow Daniel, nay believe IN Daniel, as he leads us from the pontoon-ed banks of the Tennessee to the northern reaches of the First Ridge (AKA Sharp’s) to a most hallowed place, perhaps one of the last great dives on Earth: Our Place. Drink a beer and eat a bag of chili-cheese Fritos, then white-knuckle it back into town via some Sharp’s Ridge trails.

BRING LIGHTS AND A LOCK!!!
