You start at Reedy Creek Park that is off of 42nd about two blocks East down Riverside Drive. The trail goes West along the James River called "Upper Buttermilk” to the "Nickel Bridge (161). You then have to ride over the bridge to the North side of the river. This is called The “North Bank” and you bike East through the cemetery to Tredegar Street. You then go South on the footbridge under the Robert E. Lee Bridge (301/1). That brings you to Belle Isle.
You can ride all over this area with a number of trails that are from beginner to expert. You will encounter many people on B.I depending on what time of year it is. After this, you then go on the "Lower Buttermilk" trail biking west, skirting Riverside Drive and the train tracks along the banks of the James River. After completing this section, you will end back up at Reedy Creek Park where you began. This loop, depending on how much you ride on Belle Isle, will give you about 9.5 miles.
