Got any rivers? They're usually nice without intersections.

There are a couple of creeks around I could follow but none line up with the commute I'm aware of

Even if they add ten minutes I used to prefer taking the creek for the peaceful cycling.

If I can ride these other trails I think I'll take them anyway. They cut out some annoying intersections next to a busy road.

And the ride yesterday was tough, but the view was beautiful once I finally got to the top. Much nicer than even suburban cycle paths to get around.
