This route surpassed my expectations. I live in a neighboring town and can honestly say that this will be a regular for me. There are lots of technical parts with long easygoing sections alike. Because of the technical pieces and big drop-off's, I wouldn't recommend doing this route in the dark or if you're a brand new rider. I got behind several cars, trucks, and SUV's towards the beginning of the ride, but most of them stopped at one of the many pull-off's and let me by. In addition to the other vehicles, I encountered several ATV's, so just be aware. While the roads were decent, there are definitely opportunities for improvement. I rolled across several rough patches and found many areas where gravel had entered the roadway from neighboring driveways. This isn't a deal breaker by any means, you just have to be careful and pay attention. I really enjoyed a lot of the scenery on the second half of the ride. Combine that with the long flowing curves, and it makes for a really good time. If you're passing through and have the time, I'd say it's definitely worth the visit.
