Folks,

Thanks to Rob Grider and Ted, the father of a former Pie Rider now
living in W. Lafayette, I've confirmed 2 things about the Indiana routes
I posted....Hwy 41 construction near Rob Roy is completed and there is
indeed a multiuse path just south of Hwy 136 in Veedersburg (sketched
into RideWithGPS as drawn lines so won't be as accurate as following
roads). It runs from where Corporation Line Road (S. Maple in
Veedersburg) to the road where Hershey's Dairy Barn is located ( a
couple blocks west of the Casey's on Hwy 136). Also, for the 100 mile
route that goes northwest, beware of a bridge that has gravel on either
side of the descent (I think it's between mile 31 and 32 crossing Big
Pine Creek NE of Carbondale. This route is likely well marked as well
from the just passed Wabash River Ride as the loop runs from Ciott Park.

An additional option for those wanting to add to any of the 3 routes:
From Ciott Park in Independence IN, you can ride 20 to 32 miles of the
White Route from the Wabash River Ride. Basically keep going NE from
Ciott Park and then come back on the other side of the river continuing
on to Attica. Audrey and I did this during one of our pandemic rides. It
is basically this loop - https://ridewithgps.com/routes/40760809
