We did the trip this way
Jerry Owens (Wbir old bud) wanted to do 40plus so we drove to Cedartown ga and it only took 2:55 to get there thru rome ga. CArol Osborne and martha winkler and janie sharpe and patti grady wanted to do 20-30 so they drove down I-59 and cut over to piedmont ala and they started there about 5 min before we biked by the depot. In piedmont (the depot) it is a cute visitor center with ladies playing bridge and older gents helping to be host to bikers coming thru. It is about 23 miles from cedartown and 12 miles past the state line where the silver comet turns into chief ladiga trail We all headed to anniston ala where my hubby and daughter grace met us and we all stayed at Victoria Inn a neat place built in 1800's but new part all added on to it. Man did they have good food. But missy had to shop at family dollar next door first. as she had left two ladies bags in wrong car still inK town!!! they didn't have any clothes to change too. ha
NExt day I rode tandem bike with hubby and 3 others from end to piedmont and we met janie and patii and gracie there.. good cafe in town for smoothies and food. Gracie and dad did tandem 23 miles while I got on road bike with others. after 10 miles or more three of us turned around and got the cars to drive to cedartown while others biked on.
We went to nice holiday inn express and gracie got to swim (instead of shower) and we all went to rockmart 12 miles away and ate at FRANKIES it is great and right on trail ...... great breadsticks pizza calzone etc etc and she loves for bikers to sign her wall.
4 of us who stayed over and biked more on silver comet (cooters lake and tressel) ate lunch there the following day AND they have good consignment shops too for you shoppers!
