About the Ride
=============
Please check out http://gravelmap.com, which is how I discovered the road in this installment. Highly recommended!
Payton's Ridge Road is a gravel road surrounded by woods in Owen County, KY. I found it on gravelmap.com. It's one of the shorter trips from Lexington, so I decided to check it out.
Takeaway: while the wooded gravel road is pleasant (except for some deeper gravel sections), ultimately, Payton's Ridge Road is a disappointment for motorcycling. Along the way there were "private" and "no trespassing" signs, but they were facing directly at the road, which I interpret as "stay off my property", as opposed to "turn back". However, after about a mile I discovered a "No Trespassing" sign more obviously facing road users, which made me decide to turn around.
