I'm not sure if this is the appropriate forum, but I have no doubt Joe will move it if need be.
Has anyone ridden all or part of the MABDR? A lot of the published route is forest roads and what look on Goggle Maps to be county routes (with a number) or picturesque names that suggest gravel. Is the majority of the route blacktop or gravel? I do know there are some alternates if you wish to stay entirely on blacktop, and similarly, there are some single track off road sections again as alternates. I am asking about the main route that you can download from the MABDR - the magenta route that shows up in Basecamp when you open the .gpx file.
