https://www.relive.cc/view/1061554524 Was traveling down to this route from north Ohio, so I wanted to start closer to Mantua. The only public parking I could find was in Aurora at the Audubon park. I found this ride tough for three reasons -- the other rider's RwG post of this course had it under 2,000' of climbing. My ride, as shown, has it at 3.5K' -- nowhere near as flat. It was warm -- close to the high 80s, and humid. And there are quite a few stretches of either wonky or *really* crappy pavement (yielding the same discomfort of riding on scarified pavement). Otherwise, quite interesting to see a slice of middle America. Plenty of peaceful stretches along farmland. No stray dogs bothered me. Only place to get water is to buy it at convenience stores.
