look out!!!
Thought this deserved it's own thread, so as not to get lost in the cacophony of GS BS going down in the GS Giant's Adventure Summit thread.
BIG to Ajayhawkfan, aka Eddie McLiney of the KC Club (and, of course, the GS Giants ) who put most of these rides together.
All rides are designed for easy, pleasant, no-drama adventure riding. The "hard" routes are hard because they go to nearby OHV areas, which offer a range of challenges from simple dirt trails to bust-your-butt single-track.
Each GPS route links to a zip file, and in the zip are two GPS routes... a Garmin .GDB and a generic .GPX. Each Printable Map links to a PDF that you can print or copy to your super-cool iPad.
THANK YOU EDDIE!!!!!
