Spinner’s Park-River Bottoms

Terrain: Hilly in spots…Gin Shop Hill is a good climb…second half of the ride is tame…until Gin Shop

Distance: 17 miles

Level: Intermediate

From Montgomery, go north on I-65 to the first Prattville exit (Holiday Inn/exit 179). At the end of the ramp, turn left on Cobb's Ford Rd. Go about 4 miles and cross Hwy 31. Cobb's Ford becomes Main Street. Go down the hill and go until Main turns 90 degrees to the right. Follow street until you get to 6th street. Turn left on 6th and follow it until it dead ends into CR 57. Spinner's Park is on the right at the dead end. Any of the Prattville rides can be ridden out of Spinners. It’s a popular meeting place for P’ville bikers.
