Additionally, he sponsors the USA Pro Cycling Team while contributing to various community charities; with a fantastic passion for cycling, he is an invaluable supporter of local cycling communities.

Even though its beauty makes this route beautiful, its challenges can make it challenging. Cyclists should pay close attention to terrain and traffic conditions before embarking. Roads may narrow in some spots; cyclists should exercise caution when crossing driveways and intersections. There is often vehicular traffic in the summer months, which makes navigation challenging at times.
