Introduction
This is a collection of GPX routes for navigating parts of Ann Arbor that lack bike infrastructure. These routes use back roads to fill in gaps in the bike network, making the city easier to navigate. If you have a route that might be useful, please email me a GPX file.
Please note that some browsers may add a .xml extension to the GPX file when you download it. Remove the extension, leaving just the .gpx extension, and you should be good to go.
Radial Routes
These routes fan out from the downtown protected bike infrastructure network, providing safe connections between downtown and Ann Arbor’s neighborhoods.
