Qualifier for these routes!

The following routes were developed over years of biking in Indiana and now Kentucky. At the time they were the most direct routes using paved county roads and minimal secondary highways to connect the county roads. When possible the most scenic road was used. Over time most counties added more paved roads however in a few instances when county budgets were stretched, roads reverted back to gravel. Using my routes you'll almost always find that the distances between two points is more than taking highways however the scenery is most often better as well as the traffic. Hopefully you'll enjoy the great cycling in Indiana or Kentucky and if possible provide feedback on your trip.
I am not making any recommendations nor can I say that these routes are free from road hazards or dangers from traffic. Users of these routes will find them scenic and remote however only the user can assure they are safe on any public road.

Looking for scenic interesting rides?

I've discovered that on YouTube you can find videos of most anything. So I decided to see if some highlights of the rides I've taken over the years are there. Sure enough I found the Tulip Trestle located in Greene County ENE of Bloomfleld, The round jail in Crawfordsville, St Meinrad Archabbey, The Shoe Tree South of Milltown, Colonial Brick near Cayuga, the Wabash & and Erie Canal near Delphi, West Baden Hotel near French Lick, Marble Hill no more, and more. These and other interesting sites are found on routes in my book Back Roads of Indiana available through Hodsons Bay Company, 765-743-3506.
