Tour of the Eastern Shore
I was looking to plan a tour of the Delmarva Peninsula. I was
planning to leave from Kiptopeake State Park and end in Lewes Delaware. I was wondering if staying on US Thirteen would be a good route and what are some things I should look for any good stops? I was planning on stopping at Assategue National Park maybe for a lay over. I was looking at maybe taking a few days to do it probably up to a week for a round trip. It's still a plan hopefully I'll get around to it in the near future. |

Maryland has bicycle maps at the above site. US 13 is the only road in some section. I found that the business route is best going through Salbury. I Rode from Philadelphia to Norfolk and use Rt 13 south of Dover. Delaware has a signed bicycle bicycle route that go near Lewes DE. and ends in Fenwick Island http://www.billcotton.com/delaware1.htm Stay on the coast roads to Assateague Island.

The East Coast Greenway http://www.greenway.org/ tries to use trails when possible, but is geared toward transversing the whole U.S. coast. |

It sure is fun to hammer on with a 30 mph tailwind. Wide shoulders and no stops for almost 12 miles, IIRC. -bdbafh |
