Yes, Hickman County is the gravel Mecca of middle Tennessee. Ben Fly is fun but not on the GDGG route. My sympathy for having to drive so far to find gravel. I had a couple roads close to me that were recently paved, which was sad. There are still a couple I can ride to, or I can drive to Hickman in 40 minutes.
