Rider's Comments:
KINGKOSLOW: What a terrific path this is. Varied terraine, from afew very difficult climbs, to short stretches through swamp and prarie, but it is all easyon the eyes. Also, be on the lookout for the famed white deer. Transplanted from Africayears ago, they've meshed with the native mule deer. But pure white examples will still beseen by the savvy biker. Lastly, I encourage you to avoid weekday hours from 4-6p.m, if you don't like crowds.
