Indiana River City Ride Routes

If you think that all Indiana roads are boring, you are in for a pleasant surprise. The River City Ride route collection includes many of the routes from the years 2012 to 2020. Most were developed by the late Larry McIntosh, who knew every road in southern Indiana, and Don Payne, who is very good at finding those little technical county roads that many of us love to ride.

All Routes GPX format

Each GPX file contains TWO route versions-
1. A "Standard" version with Way and Via points for Garmin zumo 660, 450, 550 and earlier models, other GPS brands.
2. A "Trip Planner" version designated by a "TP" suffix at the end of the route name. This version uses mostly shaping points for compatibility with Garmin zumo XT, 390 series, 590 series, as well as BMW Nav5 and Nav6. Be sure to use the TP version if you have one of these models or any Garmin GPS that uses the Trip Planner App on the device to access routes. "TP" versions usually work best with TomTOM and phone apps as well.
