Does there exist a Connecticut Bike Map similar to the Mass or NH bike maps? Does anyone know where I could pick one up? Or, even better, if there is one, can I borrow someone's for the Labor Day weekend? I'd like to ride down and surprise my parents in Norwalk!

I have a set of the county maps. They're not as useful as I had hoped, as they are blueprints showing every road in the county. There is no information about which roads have heavy traffic or hills. There were also one or two places where it seemed from the map that two roads met, but in fact there was an impassable gap. I'd use them as a reference when drawing maps, and for checking street names, but I wouldn't use them as the primary map for route planning. --David |
