Trailhead Pine Island: Car-park at trail head in Pine Island
Trail / road conditions : Fair to Excellent
This is one of our favorite early season routes. You can combine this with a flat run on the Douglas trail to add in more miles. In Pine Island, follow the trail into town until you come to Main street. Cross-over at the Greenway gas station and continue up the side road away from town. After about 200 yards, the road turns right. Continue about 1/4 mile until you come to a T-junction with CR 11. Turn left and head west to Roscoe. There is one long climb up to Roscoe. At Roscoe, take the left turn to head south and east back to Pine Island. This section has some good downhills and one or two moderate climbs. You end up back in Pine Island on main street about 1/4 mile west of where you first crossed it. Cross over Main street and use the back roads to re-join the Douglas trail.
Recommend use of V2 Aeros as some road sections are rough.
