Please note, if you get the chance to read the articles regarding the Trail, you will see several references to crossing private land. As the course has evolved, However, I have found many ways to avoid those private properties. Today, the entire trip can be made without venturing off publicly available roads. This eliminates a potential stress for those using my maps and does not jeopardize my project. Trust me, you won't miss the private sections. It's still one great trip!

Sam, thank you for making it all possible.  Over 2,000 miles of dirt, in two weeks on the trail.  This is a serious adventure, come prepared, and ready to ride a lot each day.  I will forever be grateful to you Sam for a vacation of a lifetime."

--Brian Slark, Alabama

 

"The weekend in the Ozarks on the Trans America Trail was the highlight of my coast-to-coast ride.  Sam's roll charts and maps make riding the Trail a worry free and fun experience, including a too-close encounter with a mud hole on War Loop Road!"

--Anke Irmscher, New York
