Tates Creek Road - Lexington to Richmond - By proberts

A very good little ride that isn't well-known or highly traveled. The scenery is nice, but I consider the highlight of this ride taking the Valley View Ferry across the Kentucky River. It gives a glimpse into the past long before the superhighways took over America. The slow easy ride across on the ferry gives a nice break on a hot summer day. As the original poster said about the road conditions, there are some places where patching has been done. However, if you're familiar with the backroads of Kentucky it's no different than anywhere else around the area. Nothing major to upset your ride.
