U.S. Bicycle Route 8

U.S. Bicycle Route 8 (USBR 8) is the northern most U.S. Numbered Bicycle Route which runs between Fairbanks and the Canadian border in the State of Alaska.^[1]^[2]^[3] The route lies entirely within Alaska, and much of it follows the Alaskan Highway.^[3] It has two spur routes, U.S. Bicycle Route 108 and U.S. Bicycle Route 208. Bike Route 108 starts in Tok and ends in Anchorage. Bike Route 208 follows the Haines Highway from the Alaska Marine Highway terminal in Haines to the Canadian border; it is planned to connect to its parent route in Haines Junction, Yukon. 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.^[2]^[3]^[4] 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.^[2] Bike Route 108 connects to U.S. Bicycle Route 95 in Anchorage.^[2]
