Cecil Scenic Short

Terrain: Flat to gently rolling

Distance: 59 Miles

Level: Moderate for distance, easy for terrain

From Montgomery: Take Hwy 110 (Vaughn Rd) east from the eastern by-pass. John Hall’s Store (abandoned) is approximately 14.5 miles out from the bypass.  It is at the intersection of CR 37 and SR 110.  There is another store about 200 yards back toward Montgomery from John Hall that’s open if you need supplies and an elementary school for parking if you like.

This is a good ride to get away from the Montgomery traffic.  You will enjoy the Alabama countryside free from traffic for the most part. Exercise caution on SR 110 and SR 82.  Traffic is usually not heavy, but it is a fast road with no shoulder.

This is a great route for rural riding but it only has 1 store and it’s slightly off route.  At 13.4, the route turns right, but you should turn left to go to Ma’s Store.  It’s the only refuel stop on the ride until you return to Cecil.  After you refuel at Ma’s Store, backtrack and return to the route.  Your mileage will be 1.6 long for the rest of the way.
