Scenic ride through the swamp. Lots of gravel between bridges so I loosened my shocks to ease the bumps, but otherwise it was not too challenging. I got to see a lot of birds and even a gator. Only encountered one other group of people the whole time on a beautiful Saturday. The last stretch of the final trestle was still being resurfaced but you can still make it out to the bridge that crosses the Wateree.
