Northeast B-Road Saunter
This route pieces together some fun B-road sectors and looser terrain, making for a “busy” and fun course. B-roads are always a little extra fun and tend to be more susceptible to the weather with their minimal maintenance. Enjoy their seasonality and constant evolution. * Edited to exclude the Douglas Reservoir canal sector which seems to be permanently closed.
This route is a part of the 2025 FoCo Fondo Training Ride p/b Pearl iZUMi series (Women’s Weekend- long route).
