On The Road: Spooky Country Lane
Today I went down a spooky country lane known as Gores Mill Rd. It’s just off of Nicodemus and about 7 miles from the door to my house. This road is even spookier than Ivy Mill. Ivy Mill dives down towards Liberty reservoir in the shade, but it’s two lanes. Gores Mill quickly becomes one lane which goes through a few forests. Up and over a stream and then steep into another dark forest glade. You can go fast. You want to go fast thinking about what’s out in the woods here. Finally, you climb a small hill and are very soon close to Reisterstown.
From here, a dog chased me. She was a small little thing and I had to turn around and bring her back to her home where her master was waiting. I was down the road and knew she was still after me, but I couldn’t let her hang out there it would’ve been dangerous. So I turned around and pedaled her back to her house. Dumb dog.
The rest of the ride was uneventful. Reisterstown Road to Berryman’s Lane which is a usual part of my loop was easy. I only went out for an hour and about 15 miles. I was short on finishing up 150 miles this month by tenths of miles. Perhaps tomorrow I can cover that. What’s the weather supposed to be like?
