The Judson Bottom road is closed due to some rocks in the road and it is a local cyclist favorite so of course we had to check it out.

The slide areas were easy for bicycles to manuever.

Going to take something big to clean this road up. Meanwhile the cyclists get it all to themselves!

Then we see this ball field in Stark. Nothing else! No town, just a ball field. We stopped for a snack. We passed another ball field with nothing else in town too. We figured they watched Field of Dreams OR maybe this was the inspiration for the movie!

Then we rode by this house! It's the only one we saw!

This group was in the water and we stopped to take a shot but they took off before we could get them all standing in the water. Cute!
