I saw some of the above posts...but I'm not sure where they are in relation to where I will be...coming to Louisville Labor Day weekend  - my son is racing in the BMX Grand Nationals...and I'm planning on bringing my bike.  The racing is at  E.P. Tom Sawyer Park.  I think there is also swimming there, if I'm not mistaken...any ideas for road biking out of this area.  I will be at the mercy of my son's races, but thinking I can get out for a couple of early rides.  Thanks from south florida!!!

I live in Louisville and just did a sprint tri at E.P. Tom Sawyer Park. They do have a nice pool, but my understanding is that it is only open for lap swimming on Tues/Wed/Thur evenings, but you might double check with the park staff about that.

As far as bike routes go, I'm definitely not an expert regarding routes in that end of town. Although I work out in that area and see cyclist fairly often. You might consider contacting the Louisville Bike Club, http://www.louisvillebicycleclub.org. I live in an area called The Highlands, which is more toward the downtown area, about 10-15 miles from where you'll be. I can help you with routes around there if interested. Feel free to send me a PM if you'd like more details about routes, restaurants, etc.
