How would you tackle all the trails in the CSRA in one week?

Canal-FATS-Keg-Mtoe-Keg-Bartram-Modoc-Turkey-Wine-Horn-Plum Branch-Baker Creek-HKSP-LCHT.
There would be some long paved and gravel sections.
Four of us rode from North Augusta to Bradley about 12 years ago. We hit what was the old Tower Trail, Modoc, Turkey, Wine, Baker, and HKSP. It took 3 days and was 140 miles. We camped the first night at four mile bridge at Modoc and the second night at Baker Creek. We pulled bob trailers to haul our camping stuff.

ok, I was thinking if it was car supported. Another words you would ride the trails but could drive to the trail heads.

If you wanted to keep your riding to around 20+ miles per day....you could easily pair the trails up and do these in a week ........the only catch or trails kind of hanging out there left would be Boyd Pond (formerly ORA - Aiken) and the Augusta Canal Trail (lots of driving but you'd have the circuit completed in the week you mentioned). If it were me I'd probably pair them up like this: - ORA and Canal and then add in Horn Creek and Modoc 26+ mile day - your drive time will probably be longer than your ride time on this day
- Keg and Mistletoe (the Christmas Party ride) 25+ miles
- Turkey and Wine for another 25 miles round trip
- Bartram Trail - one way (drop a car) 19 miles or just do all 38
- Hickory Knob and Baker Creek State Parks - 20+ miles
- Long Cane - over 20 miles
- FATS - will need to do it all in a day to finish in a week but if you want to stick to about 20 miles in each session - warm up on Big Rock and Tower early (just under 9 mile) then a lunch break and drive to the southern trailhead finish off the other 26+ miles in the afternoon.
These are not in any particular order!
