Mianus River Reservoir

Highlight • Lake

This small reservoir is sandwiched between Mianus River Natural Park and Mianus River State Park. The road gets narrow through here so keep your head up when riding through this area.

St Mary's Church

Highlight • Religious Site

I would recommend E Middle Patent Road as a nice and quiet road for road biking or touring. The church is not that noteworthy imho.
