Know before you go

• While the routes are open to all, most are designed for cyclists 16 or older who have at least a few years of bicycling experience. In other words, this isn’t where you should teach little Sally to ride a bike. Stick to local parks for that.
• Not all routes are marked with signs, and route conditions can vary.
• A red line on an individual route map indicates a shared roadway, while a green line indicates an off-road path.
