Caution:  Our routes are not as safe if you choose to ride in the opposite direction of travel.  All roads are road bike worthy.  Tri-bikes are not recommended due to potential for small gravel pieces.

Many of our routes are right-of-way and once you are on a road and heading in the correct direction stay on it; you won't see a mark until you approach a stop or T intersection. Earliest marks are often alongside the yellow road sign.
Direction pointing "yard signs" will alert you to approaching turns off of a right-of way.
