Redlands Eclectic Excursion |
|||
|
Terrain: Moderately hilly Distance: 35 Level: Intermediate to strenuous in areas To get to the start of this ride: From Montgomery, go out Wares Ferry Rd from the eastern by-pass and turn left on Dozier Rd at the River Run Golf Course. Follow Dozier to the new toll bridge. You'll need $0.75 to cross the bridge whether you drive your car or ride your bike out. After the toll bridge, you'll intersect Rifle Range Rd. You can either park here and ride (this will add about 20 miles to the route) or you can drive to the start. Take a right on Rifle Range and go up the first climb and take a left on CR 129. Follow 129 and you'll dead end into Redlands road (CR 8). There's a small country store on the left for parking (always ask to park). If you rode your bike to here, turn right on CR 8 and pick up the route description here. You can count on some good hills south of Hwy 14. |
