Bike Paths on Bear Mountain/Seven Lake Drive?.?
I'm wondering if they're any nice bike paths where you can cycle by Bear Mountain?
Besides Seven Lake Drive...which is probably a nice path...but road conditions might be a little bumpy? (never tried though...)
Anyone have any experiences with either location?

I love to ride in that area. I don't know of any "bike paths" per se, but the roads are lovely. Look-up the "Bear Mountain Classic" race course to find a nice loop (with a 2 mile climb). Also the climb up to the top of Bear Mountain from 9W is great (about 4-4.5 miles). I've uploaded a Google Earth file of a 200km brevet I rode in October that hit some of the roads out there. You'll have to unzip it before viewing it.
