Directions to the Johns Island Ride |
| Coming from Charleston, go to James Island via the new connector (SC 30). Turn rignt at the end of the connector onto Folly Road. Immediately turn left from Folly Road onto Central Park Road. At the end of Central Park Road turn right onto Riverland Drive. At the first traffic light turn left onto Maybank Highway (Hwy 700). The Food Lion where the ride directions begin is 3 miles on your right (see the red dot on the map below). |
What to expect on the ride... |
This route is used on both weeknights and weekends for training
by the race group because of the good roads, low traffic, and decent distances to be had.
The island is very flat (although some folks are taking advantage of the Main Road bridge
to get some hill work) and offers distances up to about 50 miles. There aren't many
opportunities for restrooms or refreshment on the island so you may want to take advantage of
the facilities at Food Lion, at the convenience store near the bridge on Main Road, or at Kiawah.
