Hi, I was interested to see if any of y'all had ridden up around Cartersville before from the brewery.  I know they have loops of different distances.  My rides are starting to pick up in distance and I need more open space to ride.  If you have ridden up there, are there signs to mark the different loops, or do you pretty much have to memorize the directions from the website?  Also, how congested are the roads? safety issue?  Lemme know guys!

I've been up there quite a bit and it's one of my favortie rides.  Roads are well marked with the different mileage options.  Low traffic and great rolling hills and scenary.  Be careful to follow the traffic laws though.  I had a friend with the Coke Cycling team detained for hours one day for running a stop sign.

 Enjoy.

I just got back from riding at cartersville. There are several mileage options, I typically do combinations of the 27 mile and 12 mile loop (I did 2 27 loops today). I think there is also a 55 mile, 65 mile, and century option. There is very little traffic and the route is safe. There are also enough other riders that if you get into trouble, someone will be around to help. The markers are yellow triangles and are easy to follow. I love to ride at Cartersville!
