Recap: Somerset-Crooksville via Perry SF

Quick recap: 5 cyclists. 36 miles. 2800 feet of climbing.
Parking is available at the ballfields adjacent to the St. Joseph Catholic Church. We adjusted the route to remove some old mining roads that are no longer accessible, so our ride is shorter than published route. Temps were in the 60’s to upper 70’s. Had a few runners and yippers but nothing unfriendly. We stopped for snacks at a lake in Perry State Forest. Gravel was dry and fast with some scatter gravel in areas. 60% gravel road estimate.
