In this video, JOM explores downtown Florence, Alabama, and follows a route designed by his good mate, Jason Lopez aka JayLo Cycling (https://jaylocycling.com), albeit with some modifications. The ride starts and ends in downtown Florence, and heads out into to the hinterlands and gravel roads near Florence. Enjoy!

Reminder:
ALWAYS BE A STEWARD FOR GRAVEL CYCLING: Respect the roads, respect the locals, respect the land, respect your fellow cyclists.
