Courtnee and I went out on a Sunday Funday ride at Salem Lake. We did a few laps, headed out the greenway, and decided to go get a beer from Fiddlin' Fish Brewery. It was a pretty fun way to end the weekend!! Courtnee is sporting a Salsa Journeyman that I have added some custom vinyl to, to cover up some of the orange, and dial in the pink :)
If you ever find yourself in Winston Salem, NC with a bike, then you should really check out the greenways that the city has to offer. From an old abandoned rock quarry to several routes into downtown, Winston Salem has it going on for greenways. If you have a gravel bike, then take one of these wonderful greenways down to Salem Lake. It offers a 7 mile loop of mostly sand rock type surface. All of this is interconnected by bike paths, greenways, and bike lanes.
My adventure took me on a lot of what Winston Salem has to offer. In the video above I started off the Adventure doing a few laps around Salem Lake Trail before heading off to the Salem Creek Greenway. From there I visited the Quarry at Grant Park and soaked in the view of downtown from the observation pier. Once I had left the quarry, I headed to downtown via the Long Branch Trail. You can really get a great view of Winston Salem's east side of the downtown area.
This concluded my sightseeing and I decided to finish out the Salem Creek Greenway and head on back to the car. Please checkout the video above, hit that like button, and subscribe to my channel as I will be release more videos of different Adventures around the area.
The day started off a little rainy and chilly, but that's OK... cause where we are going, it keeps the crowds low!
This video I joined up with Pedal Vision's Greg for some fun laps around the Salem Lake in Winston Salem. We do explore out from around the lake, taking the Salem Creek Trail to Quarry at Grant Park. It has this awesome views over the water filled quarry of downtown Winston Salem, NC.
We headed up Long Branch Trail and explored some downtown sites and cruised around some of the local downtown attractions. From there we navigated the Strollway from downtown back to the Salem Creek Greenway. Checked out the wooden bridge at Old Salem and went back on our way on the greenway.
We finished the ride out by doing some hot laps around Salem Lake again and taking it back to the car. You can see in the video that we had a blast.
If you like the video, please give it a thumbs up, and also while you are at it, subscribe to the channel for more gravel adventures videos in the future.
Is Single Speed MTB dead? Well some will tell you it is, while others will tell you it can't die! I find that it may be more of a Life...
