If you stop into Nebo, they'll likely be able to give you a map, but the route is typcially marked with orange Dan Henrys that are a circle with an "N" in the middle. My guess is that they'll be re-marking it soon with the training riding starting up in April. There's not a lot of traffic on the route, and it's a great way to get used to riding on the road.
Thanks - The 106th street route sounds like a good "next step" out of Eagle Creek. When I am fully comfy with the new pedals and riding on streets I will contact you about a Johnson County ride I do know Nebo Ridge, that is where my Long Haul Trucker is coming from.

WindingRoad, that sounds great - and your ride starts at Eagle Creek which is kind of serving as my "cycling nursery" I will PM you later this spring and see when I can tag along! I just want to make sure that I am safe enough for others to ride around Ride, Ride, Ride
