Yes, I did make the turn onto the I-20 West on ramp, but it was only to take the cutover to Oporto Madrid Blvd which splits off the on ramp before reaching the interstate
After crossing the Gate City hill and making it through East Lake, the road I was on went right by the Southern Museum of Flight, which is really cool for cyclists because so many of the planes are lined up along on the road outside the museum.
