Written Directions

Start at Neely Mansion which can be found by taking the Auburn-Black Diamond Road exit off of Highway 18, east of Auburn. Proceed on Auburn-Black Diamond Road for 5 miles until you come to a triangular block with a group of businesses. Take a left and cross Kent-Black Diamond road onto Thomas Road for another few miles. End at the intersection of Thomas Road and Covington-Sawyer Road. Left takes you into Covington, right takes you out to Lake Sawyer and more excellent riding roads.

Scenery

Along this route there are lots of trees, houses, and farms.

Drive Enjoyment

Lots of twisties with good camber. Smooth pavement. Few surprises of the bad kind, but some tightening radius corners and blind turns. Remain alert and have fun. No hills to speak of, but the corners are great.

Tourism Opportunities

Not much for amenities except for a good bar & grill at the triangular block between Auburn-Black Diamond Road and Kent-Black Diamond Road.

Motorcycle Road Additional info

This ride is very near several other great roads. With very little effort, you can connect to Green Valley Road (" The Green Valley Taco Run) route.
