Ladies/Gentlemen,
I plan to bicycle thru West Virginia this summer as part of a bike trip from Cedar Rapids, Iowa to my sister's farm
outside Georgetown, WV. I plan to roughly follow the American Discovery Trail. As parts of this trail appear hard to follow
or not too well kept up, I am asking for your advice on the feasibility of bicycling on some of the West Virginia highways.
The roads I would like advice on are:
-WV 58 between Clarksburg and Bridgeport
-WV 76 between Bridgeport and Philippi
-US 250 between Hopewell and calhoun (around Philippi)
-WV 38 between US250(outside Philippi) and WV 72, by St.George at the Cheat River
-WV 72 between St.George and WV32, just past Red Creek, WV
-County Road 45 between WV32 and Laneville
-Forest Road 19 between Laneville and County Road 28-7 by Hopeville
-County Road 28-7 between Hopeville and WV42
-WV 42 between County Road 28-7 and Scherr
-WV 93 between Scherr and US50 by Claysville
-US 50, WV 972, and US 220 between Claysville and Keyser
-County Road 42-3 between WV42 and Greenland
-WV 25/WV 55 between Hopeville and Petersburg
-WV 42 between Petersburg and Maysville
-County Road 3 between Maysville and Mineral County where it becomes County Road 9
-County Road 9 from Grant County to Short gap
-WV 46 between Keyser and Ft Ashby.
-WV 28 between Ft Ashby and Springfield.
-County Road 1 between Springfield and Green Spring
I realize this is a lot of territory to cover. Please comment on parts that you have bicycled. I am particularly
interested in estimates of traffic use and how safe the road is to bike. Feel free to suggest alternative routes. Thanks.
