I road ride alone (mountain bike with a friend too scared of Cougars to go out there on my own) and I find it really relaxing. Having children means this is about the only time I get to myself. At first I was a little worried about being out in the sticks on my own but now I just let my husband know what route I will be taking and off I go. If I decide to change my route a little to explore then (if I can get a mobile signal which can be a problem here ) I ring him and let him know.

Do what you feel comfortable doing. If you decide to ride the route make sure you give us a ride report.

Happy riding.
