Not Southern Illinois but close...

I rode about 10 miles on a mix of gravel and paved roads at Land Between the Lakes in KY.

It was a lot of fun! Mostly gravel, no dogs chasing you, very little traffic. Some roads are all to yourself because trees are down.

But man, that area is hilly. Almost 1K foot of elevation in 10 miles.

Anyone ever bike there?
 
Yeah, Shawn Hargis and I rode down there from Herrin. It was a good ride, definitely not an easy finish to 110 miles. Good riding down there though
