What a beautiful day to ride. Finished the taxes, sent out some resume's that nobody looks at and then went ridin'.

Last year I found Orme TN on the old Virago. I didn't find Orme mountain road and didn't check the old CCC road (the Virago really isn't all that great on gravel/dirt).

Today, I finished the deal on the Strom. Orme mountain road doesn't have a sign; that's why I missed it before. OMR is a rough, steep, occasionally maintained road. I'd hate to take a car down it. The Strom doesn't care. It soaked up some massive holes. One very steep section has fresh tarmac. Other sections are vary from gravel to old tarmac.

The CCC road doesn't go all the way through like google map shows, but I rode until the no trespass signs stopped me. At least on the east end fairly ordinary single lane gravel road.
