No, don't avoid it, you can use Six Forks it's a little busy at lunch but we use it often in the morning after 9:00 am, there are a lot of options in the area, I like some of the Raleigh Bike Route that go through North hills and cross the Pedestrian Bridge and over to Umstead and back by Westgate/Strickland, about 28 miles. I ride this route when riding alone, I will post this route if you would like to try it. Randy
