North Alabama, Elk River

Almost hit 60 degF in North Alabama today. Had to get out and ride! Made a 25 mile loop by the Elk River, near my house.

It was a nice day here too.  Didn't ride but at least enjoyed the sunshine.

 l lived just over the line in Lincoln county [Dellrose/Hot Rock] across the road from the Elk. Great riding country, lots of twisties, not much traffic, but lots of deer. Not so twisty here in the FL panhandle, but the riding season is a lot longer.

Nice pic - it looks like a shot of the James River from the Colonial Parkway.
