Bike to Happy Hour (B2HH) – Delano

Below we’ve put together some routes from randomly chosen locations from different parts of Wichita.  We used Garmin Connect’s Course Planning function to lay out some general routes.  Then we modified those routes to prioritize low stress, low risk routes.  Our aim was to give some general directional routes that could be tapped and personalized for your particular location.  We recommend using tips on the Route Planning page to help identify a route that works best for you and your own skill and comfort level.

These routes are publicly available on Garmin Connect if you have a Garmin device you want to send them to.  Go to courses –> Nearby Courses –> Filters.  Filter course name “B2HH” to see the full list of offerings.
