Routes / Looking For Route Recommendations
« on: May 05, 2013, 01:23:48 pm »
I looking for recommendations for safer and/or lower traffic routes for touring.
I live in southern California and I'm no stranger to dealing with cars on the road - I ride our busy roads with cars virtually every day. But I'm interested any route suggestions that would take me away from this and offer nice wide shoulders and/or very little traffic to contend with. (Eventually I'd like to make my way to the Netherlands to give their network of bike paths a shot.)
I've spent most of my life competing for space on the road with cars. I'm interested in alternatives where I can relax and just ride my bike without being strafed by cars every few moments. I have experienced a few places like this myself but I'm curious of what others have found.
Have you found an area, region or country that was relatively free of car-conflicts for bicycle travel? Gravel and dirt roads are not out of the question either.
Thanks in advance for your thoughts and suggestions.

General Discussion / Panniers VS. trailers, what do you prefer?
« on: December 08, 2004, 05:16:41 pm »
I am an avid cyclist however I have done very little touring. I have done a couple of shorter tours using just rear panniers. I would like to plan a longer tour but need to carry more gear. What are the pros and cons of panniers VS. trailers (BOB style)?
Thanks in advance for your opinions.
Rick, Ca.
