Augusta Canal-Savannah River Bike Ride

John, Paul, and I got up early on Saturday and drove to the Augusta Canal, so that we could bike the 10 mile trail. :) The trail was great! It was very flat and level! They do have a mountain biking trail there, but we will have to do that some other time.

These pictures are of the place you park. There is a neat water fall with a swimming hole below.









Paul is trying to get the bikes off in this photo.

More of the parking lot waterfall.




To the right of John and me is the swimming hole at the bottom of the water fall.


This bridge was really freaky to bike across. The canal was right underneath us.


This is the Savannah River.


John showed us another waterfall.



Can you spot the water snake?


Here is the beginning of the Augusta Canal.


This is the dam they used to divert the water.

The Savannah River looks really weird.

Paul and John reading something.







Yet another snake:













It was a 5 mile ride to this point and 5 miles back to the car.















This is the Augusta Water Works building.




It was a really fun bike ride. I never knew this place was there.
