An old logging road runs along side the north side of the Big River, south of Mendocino. The road has been converted for use as a hiking and biking trail, and I ventured almost 5 miles in today. It was a fun ride, not very hilly, and while more suited to a mountain or trail bike, my carbon Felt road bike did just fine.
If you roll your mouse over photos 4 and 5 below you will see a photo of the informational sign that was posted near the scene.
