I've seen comments about avoiding Route 15 near Leesburg due to heavy traffic and poor shoulder. Any recommendations on the safest route from Whites Ferry to downtown Leesburg? Thanks

You don't have any real options from Whites Ferry Road in VA to Leesburg, but that section has gotten a lot better over the past few years. Still not fun, much high speed traffic whizzing by but mostly paved shoulder available.

It's not too bad, the shoulder is fairly wide. Depending on the time of your ride you may be traveling much faster than the rush hour traffic on 15. When you hit Leesburg proper you will have your choice of a number of fast food and grocery locations.
