United States > Illinois > Montgomery
To downtown Montgomery, without being on 30  
by adevine

The way points of this bicycle route:

To get to the Aldi shopping center across from WalMart, follow Mayfield.

Be careful crossing all 4 lanes of traffic. There is a shoulder, but it's gravel mostly. You're not on it for too long.

This is pretty much downtown Montgomery. Nice places to eat. The parks are really beautiful too.

At this point, you'll want to hop on the bike path that follows Rt. 25. It's not on the map though.

There should be a bridge here that takes you into a subdivision. I think it's the 3rd bridge you'll encounter. There's a disk golf park on the other side.

You'll hit a steep hill that is Rt. 31. We couldn't find the bike path on the other side of the river from this point. When you're going over the hill, watch the shoulder for metal grates that are tire grabbin.

Caterpiller recently put up the security fence so we can't just bike straight through. However, Baseline road works too. You'll pass the Blue Boar Inn and the Mexican restaurant.

Route Details

I tried to find a way to get from Blackberry Crossing to downtown Montgomery without going on Rt. 34 or Rt. 30 so as to avoid the cars. Once you get to downtown Montgomery, follow the bike path along the river. There's a bridge to cross over to 31 to come back.
