Rails to trails are (as the name would suggest) taking unused railroad lines and paving them over as dedicated bike paths.
They’re kind of boring sometimes due to the even grading, but they are dedicated bike paths.
- AnIdiotOnTheNet 6y agoI regularly bike on two of these in my are and can confirm that they are very boring over long distances, not to mention being unpaved and therefore a bit slow. Still, I'll take them over any but the most rural of roads.
- sumtechguy 6y agoThe unpaved bits where they tore up the track but left the rock are 'challenging' to ride. Even for an experienced off road rider. The best I ever managed was about 2 miles of it. The paved bits you can go for a decently long time. Just be aware some portions are 10-20 miles with nothing really in between but farm fields, so plan accordingly.
