New Md Bicycle Map Available

Yes, the new Bicycle Map has arrived. I picked up a copy at the Monkton NCR Station, open Wed - Sunday. This new comprehensive map provides guidance for long distance cyclists travelling in Md; utilizing main roads with shoulders (e.g. - Route 140 from Westminster to Emmitsburg), bike trails like the NCR, and local roads like Butler Road - RT 128 - and Falls Rd - RT 25. Although bicycle connoisseurs familiar with the local area may find more interesting, less travelled roads; this map provides a practical and continuous route - except for the Bay Bridge - for cycling through Md.

This comprehensive bike map further strengthens our case in requesting State Highway to maintain and improve the routes listed on the map. Last, but not least, the State has removed from its prohibited highways the non Freeway portion (north of Route 26) of divided Route 15 in Frederick County and most of Route 301 in Queen Annes and Kent counties.
