View submission: Bicycle Route Help: Vanosdale Rd. to Bearden Greenway/Sutherland Ave.
This is literally the designated bike route from Cedar Bluff to Downtown. It will take you where you need to go. As the designated bike route, there is signage through here to direct you, so you won't have to memorize directions or look at your phone.
I haven't done this ride since they added the sidewalk along Kingston Pike between Wesley and Lockett. Even then, it was an easy ride on Kingston Pike as it was short. Now days, I'd be tempted to ride the sidewalk if it's complete.
Watch out crossing Deane Hill though. People fly through there. Beyond that, it's pretty safe for biking in Knoxville. Stay safe and have fun!

Thank you!
In the mid 2000's I lived in a duplex on Deane Hill not far from the mall. I used to ride all the way down Deane Hill to get to Union Jack's long before Knoxville had 10,000 breweries to choose from. I remember it not being the best road for cycling on back then and I can only imagine with the growth Knoxville has seen that it is probably worse now.
