I drove this over the last 2 days. It has about 74 paved miles scattered throughout the route. The section west of 377 is wrong on the middle part. There is a ranch that has gates and no trespassing signs. It is easily circumvented with a little maneuvering and doesn't require a full reroute. I will post my route after I ride it this spring. This is a really nice route, but I think the southern half is really excellent. I will be starting from Valley Springs and doing the route clockwise from there. If anyone has any tips on riding this on a bicycle let us know. I may attempt this on a Long Haul Trucker with 2.1" tires. Wish me luck!

Can you let me know how much (approximately) of this route is gravel vs paved? Thanks
