Written Directions

The ride starts just north of Williamsburg, VA at exit 243B off of I-64. It has MANY turns and you will need to review/print the Google Map above.

Scenery

Farms, reservoirs, trees and friendly neighbors. It winds past York River State Park towards Richardson Millpond, Goddins Pond winding it's way through New Kent County before making two passes over Diascund Creek Reservoir. I grin 90% of the ride!

Road Quality

Some fairly technical twisty roads with some good sweepers. Caution - some of the roads have the tendency to have gravel from construction vehicles building new homes. Also, be careful of the groups of Cyclist that often travel this same route on weekends ... please share the road.

Roadside Amenities

Gas can be found at the start and end of this route. A little further down the road are plenty of places to get a bite to eat as you'll be in the heart of Colonial Williamsburg. When you're done your less then 6 miles from I-64 and less then 10 miles from the Williamsburg Outlet Mall area.

Comment: This frequently 1.5-lane-wide route with limited visibility, iffy maintenance, and many residences right up on the road is probably a fine cruiser route, but it doesn't offer much for sport riders.
