Being contrary, I started at the Pearson trailhead on the Idaho side and 
pedaled uphill. It's a gentle grade so that was no problem. A bike light 
is required so I bought the cheapest one REI had. Mistake. After going 
through nine shorter tunnels as blind as a bat when I got to the mouth of 
that one I turned around and coasted back to the car.

That's another chunk of the Milwaukee Road near Butte. It has tunnels but 
I walked it. Walking in the dark is a lot easier than trying to ride a 
bike in the dark. 

There is another stretch near St. Regis that convinced me a suspension 
seat post was a good idea. It's also open to motorized vehicles so it's 
not all that appealing.
