Re: Update on Delaware Canal Improvements

On Friday I rode out to Oaks on the Valley Forge trail.  It was my first trip
out past the Betzwood picnic area since the newly paved section was opened
last month.  (I've been spending a lot more time on other routes as of late.) 
I rode out to where the trail stops being paved and picks up as a pretty loose
scramble on its way to what I assume would be Collegeville(?).  

My question is, can anyone tell me exactly how rough a ride it would be for
someone on a touring frame with 26x1.5 tires?  It looked pretty loosey goosey
and I just wasn't in the mood to give it a try.  Oh, and how far is it to the
next town, and does it ever start being paved again at some point?

OK, thanks.
