Assuming all goes well at work, I'll be there. If you don't see me by 6:15 that means I probably got tied up and won't make it.

We actually meet at the end of Jockey Hill Road. Go past the gas place (Heritage ). About 100 yards, you come to a fork in the road. Stay left. About a mile , mile and a half or so you will see Jockey Hill Road on your left hand side. Take that left. Once on Jockey Hill Rd, go all the way to the end.. We park at the dead end.

Hey Bike This!

It might be helpful if you had a couple "landmarks" to find Jockey Hill, especially since you'll be arriving in the dark, and street signs may be difficult to see.

The 'mile or so' g60dude speaks of is a little more than that to Jockey Hill Rd. It happens to be at a 4way intersection, and you should see a sign on the right side of the road that says "Camp Madison". Take left here (on Jockey Hill Rd) and follow to end.

An alternative, and possibly easier mark, would be to take the first left at the top of the hairpin turn at the Town Hall/Highway Garage compound (careful). This is a long climb up with some switchback turns that pass a WaterPark and then "T" with Jockey Hill Rd. Make left at "T" and follow to end.

Hope this proves helpful, and I expect I'll be seein' y'all!
