We rode from Pilot Grove to McKittrick this week. The trail is great except for the detour west of Rocheport and west of Portland. I certainly don't advise taking the Rocheport detour unless you are an experienced road biker as there is no shoulder, long steep hills, a narrow bridge, and the truck traffic is very fast. Someone is likely to get killed on that detour. The Portland detour is pretty easy. Stayed at the Katy Roundhouse and River's Edge campground and both were great. It was sad that many of the businesses in the small towns have closed since we last rode this a few years ago. We had a hard time finding any place where we could get a cold drink and a snack.

Hi there,
was wondering about the trail near Rocheport, are there any other options for detour other than hwy 40?
We are looking at doing the whole trail going west at the end of the summer, but want to make sure we can do so as safely as possible. My husband is an experience road biker but neither of us are comfortable riding on 40
