Are there any bike path/routes that prohibits you from open carrying? If so which routes to avoid or which routes to take. Knowing that some bike path/routes belong to the city and national park.

If the bike route "belongs" to the city then preemption would prohibit them from banning oipen carry.

If the bike route belongs to the NPS the new federal law tells them they have to abide by state law, in which case see above.

Essentially I see you worrying about a non-entity. Go ride your bike. Enjoy the sunshine. Take pictures. Get someone to take pictures of you. Post the pictures.

stay safe.
