Bob’s New Map is an improvement over his previous attempt.
That’s the one that, bafflingly, had you do Brereton->Paulowna->Herron->Morewood instead of the now Brereton->Dobson->Morewood. Maybe Bob actually rode the routes this time.
At this point I do agree that Northumberland is preferable to Aylesboro for novice riders. The stop lights make it a more controlled experience. Aylesboro is nicer but there’s some tricky stuff.
