| 40 | <!-- Page published by Emacs Muse begins here --><p>UNCGreen was having an Earth Day celebration a bit early (to avoid |
| 41 | conflicts with final exams) on April 19, 2007. I know several people |
| 42 | who attend UNCG, and I was in Morrisville at the time so I decided to |
| 43 | tape my handlebars green and make the trek.</p> |
| 44 | |
| 45 | <h2><a name="sec1" id="sec1"></a> |
| 46 | Route</h2> |
| 47 | |
| 48 | <p class="first">The route starts in the middle of Morrisville/Cary on Davis Drive at |
| 49 | the corner of High House Road facing South, and ends at the Amtrak |
| 50 | Depot in Greensboro.</p> |

| 101 | <h2><a name="sec3" id="sec3"></a> |
| 102 | Return Route</h2> |
| 103 | |
| 104 | <p class="first">I based my route on a route from the |
| 105 | <a href="http://cycling.ahands.org/greensboro-raleigh.html">Greensboro Amtrak to Raleigh Amtrak</a>. I had to reverse it as it was in |
| 106 | the wrong direction. It should be obvious how to get back to Cary or |
| 107 | Morrisville; simply hit whatever road in town you need from High House |
| 108 | Road.</p> |
| 109 | |
| 110 | <h3><a name="sec4" id="sec4"></a> |
| 111 | Alternative</h3> |
| 112 | |
| 113 | <p class="first">Instead of turning on Andrew's Store Road, continue on Mann's Chapel |
| 114 | until it hits US-15/501. If you take the left you will end up |
| 115 | intersection with NC54 or can go into Chapel Hill. NC54 East can be |
| 116 | taken all the way back to Raleigh. It isn't <em>that</em> bad to ride on, but |
| 117 | I'd recommend not doing it after dark unless your bicycle is very |
| 118 | bright.</p> |
