WHOA! i went to taylor road school as well as chattahoochee high school and til early this year lived near by off of jones bridge , small world heh
i've ridden to school a couple times when i missed the bus and my understanding is that going down taylor road is fine b/c it's mostly down hill but on the way up and especially going right towards the publix/abbots bridge, i would just cut through the subdivision silver ridge was it? whatever that first subdivision on the right past the highschool is. it may not be the most direct course but it definitely is less traffic i'd imagine.
well good luck on your commute, that area(jones bridge) definitely is not a fun place to ride as everyone and their mothers are hauling their SUVs in a homicidal tempo. cheers! ^^
