Route Type
The Chesterfield Ramble is mostly rural riding on well paved roads, with some mixed residential and primary roads included. Riders will cross some major roadways, and experience moderate traffic in some small sections as you transition between rural communities. Riders of all levels have enjoyed these routes, but you should be able to comfortably and safely manage your bike in the presence of cars and trucks. The region offers fairly frequent convenience stores for getting water and refueling but you should always carry supplies. Additional tips included are in the planning kit.
