Silver Lake

We're always trying out new routes on Sunday mornings and this was one of our better days. We spent time just outside the west by northwest side of the perimeter highway near the river and found some pleasant riding. We then headed northeast through Buckhead and the Governor's Mansion to Silver Lake and then Brookhaven.

Silver Lake is a road to get your turned around so you don't know which way you're heading. We like going there when it's windy because the trees shelter you. Today, however, it provides that sun dappled road that I like.

The photos are blurry because we're moving at about 18 MPH through these sharp turns. Lots of fun and considerably more interesting when you're trying to take pictures at the same time. On some of these, it looks like I'm almost off the road. I may have been close to falling off!

Here's a map of the "fingers" you follow around the southern side of the lake:
