Early season centuries

The Natchez Trace is kinda flat. The particular section where this ride starts is relatively flat. There are some inclines, but no sharp hills to speak of. As far as I know this ride heads north on the Trace, which is flatter than going south. I assume it's an out and back route. I routinely go out 20 miles and back, it's really no too bad. The sharper inclines are fairly short in distance. Let's put it this way........I haven't found anything like the BDB. More frequent small inclines, but nothing big. I did my first metric on the south Trace last fall.

I'm not horribly experienced with the Trace, except driving across it a few thousand times in different parts of MS. I did stay in a lodge on the Trace somewhere in TN once.

Yeah, I want a FLAT ride because I know if it's flat I'll do the whole thing if nothing stands in my way. If it's hilly--early in the season I would be tempted to quit on the first hill! lol.
