Ditch the last minute shopping mayhem and your family for a bit and join me for an early lap at world famous Dirty Sheets! This might be listed as a Mountain Biking event this is "technically" NOT a mountain biking event...while close, it will be best if you attack these Dirty Sheets with a Gravel or CX bike. When the local trail status says closed, it's time to ride gravel. In fact it's always time to ride gravel! RAIN OR SHINE EVENT, cancelled only under the threat of severe storms. The Dirty Sheets is a 20.7 mile loop - this premiere gravel route is in South Fulton County in the City of Chattahoochee Hills. Surrounded by the famous Silk Sheets road cycling route, The Dirty Sheets is a rural and scenic gravel ride that will leave you in disbelief that you are so close to downtown and the airport.
The ride starts at Cochran Mill Park and for me it's best ridden clockwise. The Dirty Sheets begins with a lil open road section but quickly changes to country dirt roads and continues to thrill for the next 20 miles. Be sure to close the "gate" behind you...and pet the goats as needed.

If you want to ride fast in the dirt, gravel (and yes, some roads) this is for you
