U.S. Bicycle Route 8


U.S. Bicycle Route 8 is the northernmost U.S. Numbered Bicycle Route, which runs between Fairbanks and the Canada–US border in the state of Alaska. The route lies entirely within Alaska, and much of it follows the Alaskan Highway. It has two spur routes. The routes were approved by AASHTO in early May 2011, making them one of the first expansions of the U.S. Bike Route system since 1982. Bike Route 8 has connections to U.S. Bicycle Route 97 in Fairbanks, U.S. Bicycle Route 95 in Delta Junction, and U.S. Bicycle Route 108 in Tok.
