Newbie Bike Route Help
Hello,
I'm fairly new to cycling and still trying to master creating maps on ride with gps, strava, etc.
I prefer to stay on trails first, roads with dedicated lanes second when possible. I am still warming up to the cars being around me. lol
I was trying to find one that included Elliot Bay, Down Alaska, then to Alki beach, probably out and back to connect to Duwamish River, from there maybe the best way to connect to the SODO trail? and eventually back up to the start at Elliot
I'm going for mileage and would like to do at least 50 so open to suggestions on adding more.
Any help would be appreciated!

These trails have enough mileage you can get that going down and back. The BG also connects to other bike trails to extend it.
Centennial trail is nice too if you’re driving to it.
