I want to ride my bike from Sacramento to Modesto (rather than drive) this weekend. I am wondering if anyone knows of any good North/South roads east of Hwy 99 that I can use. Of course I can look at a map, but it will not tell me how much traffic, how wide the sholder is etc. Even if you only know of roads that cover part of that distnace let me know and maybe I can find ways to connect them with others.

Thanks,

Josh
