For those new to gravel, please be aware: 


1.      Due to the amount of paved roads, a hybrid, cross or road bike with appropriate tires is recommended.

2.      You can do this ride safely on normal 25c road tires, larger tires - 28c and above - are recommended.

3.      Most gravel roads have few cars but use caution because the roads are narrower and cyclists are not expected.

NOTE:  Please bring a cue sheet with you if you need one.
