The Orr Park Populaire was originally designed to start at Orr Park (famous for tree carvings) in the college town of Montevallo. The route takes you through several small towns in Central, Alabama. In these towns are several restaurants/bakeries/other site seeing opportunities. The Boondocks in Brierfield is a great pre/during/post-ride meal.
For the October 30th version of this route, we start at the Clanton control located at Chevron, 2101 4th Ave N, Clanton AL. Additionally, we will ride the route in a clock-wise direction from Clanton to Maplesville, to Montevallo and back to Clanton. An updated RWGPS route will be provided prior to October 30th. Parking information for the Clanton start will also be provided prior to October 30th.
Enjoy the backroads of Central Alabama as you enjoy the smooth pavement of the original Seven Bridges Road made popular by The Eagles, pedal the quiet & scenic roads southeast of Montgomery and roll by Moton Field Municipal Airport, the location of the Tuskegee Airmen National Historic Site and Museum.
Start and end at The John Hall Store / Bishop's BBQ. Well known locally for good BBQ. Have an after ride sandwich together if desired. Nice route, has become our traditional end of year ride.
