Magic City Cycliad -John Henry's Bane - (64 Miles)

Cycling Route

Details

64.93 mi

3,611 ft

You’ll not be racing a steam drill on this route but I’ll be John Henry’d if you won’t be a “steel-driving man” as your legs conquer this route. As you pass over and by Coosa Mountain and Oak Mountain Tunnels, you might want to recall that legend has this area as one of the sites that John Henry raced the steam-powered hammer. So as you hammer your way along this course, how hard will you go? #legend #becauseyoucan
