Ride Report
I took a trip to Bismarck, ND for a nice ride along the Missouri River on highway 1806. Bismarck is a better place to ride than I expected. Though I didn't do much riding through the city itself, I came across some sharrows on Rosser Ave and other bike paths along the way as I went through Mandan towards 1806. Crossing the river was easy on Memorial Hwy with a nice & wide separated pedestrian path on the bridge.
1806 was a scenic ride with rolling hills all the way through. Traffic was light, and the vehicles I did see gave me plenty of space. I had a great time out there and wished I had more time to follow 1806 all the way down to the South Dakota border and beyond.
