It can totally be done! Most of the Via Appia has been paved over and it's used as a modern road. There are a lot of parks and areas where you can follow the original roadbed with the same basalt stones that the ancient Romans put down. These parts are tough to cross on a road bike, but it's worth at least going on a hike through these parts of the Appian Way. Coming out of Rome, there's a 10 mile stretch of the via Appia that's all original road. This makes a good bike ride if you're not loaded down too much, or you can avoid it by riding on the Via Appia Nuova which runs parallel. I prefer the ancient Roman road, even though I've broken a few spokes along the way. Your call. If you really want an easy ride that follows the route of via Appia most of the time, just take the modern Italian highway SS7. Ethan,I’m sorry I took so long to get back to you on this.
