Start

At the 4-way corner where the Casey's is, take a right onto Oak Crest Hill Road (Old Hwy 218/Cty Hwy F62/W64.

Take a left onto 500th Street (County Hwy F62).

The road will curve here sharply to the right...

Again, the road will curve sharply, this time to the left. Kansas Avenue is gravel, so continue to follow the blacktop.

Sharon Center

You can save 12 miles by taking Sharon Center Road (Cty Hwy W62) south to 540th Street.

Williamstown / Frytown / Frank Pierce

Small town, but you can see the large building at the front of it from miles away. Follow the diagonal road (Angle Road) left out of town. If you'd like extra miles, continue on 500th Street (F62) towards W38 (Johnson Iowa Rd).

Near Amish / Joetown

Turn sharp left onto 540th Street (County Hwy F67).

Kalona Cheese Factory

Definitely worth the stop. The cheese curds are a local favorite and very popular.

The blacktop will turn into Bayertown Road.

The steepest hill is not far off from around here. Be prepared.

Almost there! Take a left on Naples Avenue.

Take a right back on 500th Street (County Hwy 62). It's all flat/downhill from here.

Take a right back onto Oak Crest Hill Road (Country Road W64).

Take a left onto Main Street / 520th Street / County Hwy F62. Get some food at Casey's if you haven't already. It's a great treat after a ride and the price is right.

Hills, Iowa

Finish - Nice job! Hope you enjoyed the ride.
