Riding from Birmingham to the Chief Ladiga Trail

This is mostly just a place to document some of the options. But I would like to also state that people who don’t ride 20,000 miles on a bicycle every year don’t have a good perspective on the hierarchy of dangers in cycling. For example, riding a two-lane county road with a speed limit of 55mph is far more dangerous than riding a 70+ mph speed limit interstate if the shoulder is good and wide enough. There’s a good reason why many states out west allow you to ride a bicycle on interstate highways.

Here’s the full list of 56 routes I’ve taken:
