Instead of the traditional West Kentucky Bike Tour in the late summer/early fall, the Fat Boy and Company (yours truly, Duc Do, as the title character and route suggester, with Earl Crowe, Michael Lowe, and Dickie Swift as the "Company") explore new territory in southcentral Kentucky on Yet Another Cruise around Kentucky (YACKY) during a long four-day weekend in mid-September.

Starting in Elizabethtown, we head east to Harrodsburg while generally staying south of the Bluegrass Parkway. On the second day, we meander south to Somerset. Then it's westward along the Cumberland Parkway through some of the hilliest terrain of southcentral Kentucky to the tiny county seat of Edmonton for the last night out. On the last day, we follow the I-65 corridor north back to Elizabethtown. Following is the photographic travelogue of our little tour.
