2017-07-30 Thread Bob Lovejoy

Thanks Dave!  I am looking forward to looking over the links you sent. 
 After talking with some people, I am sure, well, fairly sure anyway, I can 
find some truly interesting rides from here in Galesburg, especially when I 
throw in Amtrak for multimodal adventures.  The basic outline of a plan is 
to take Amtrak (with bike) from Galesburg to Kansas City, then ride the 
Katy Trail back to near St. Louis.  From there, someone was telling me 
about the roads and trails that comprise the Mississippi River Trail and I 
am betting there are other options as well.

I rented a car on Friday and did something of a driving tour of eastern 
Iowa and, well ok, bike shops... (Burlington, Iowa City, Cedar Falls).  At 
most of the stops, especially Bickel's in Burlington, I picked up maps and 
notes for different trails and routes so I have much to study.  I am hoping 
to put together at least a few rides  that can be done in a reasonable 
time, practice I am thinking for longer adventures.

Anyway, I will definitely post notes and pictures of anything I figure out. 
 Thanks again for the links!

Bob

Dear Andy,
Thanks. The Cheviot is a favorite and a keeper.  It is perfect for a tour of 
this type.  

Yes, someone (PNC?)had trail entrance blocked,  so we backtracked and worked 
our way around the building/block and entered by the bike store.  It was smooth 
sailing from there!  At the time, the blocked trail seemed inauspicious.  In 
hindsight just a small hiccup!   

Trailside in West Newton is a favorite.  Connellsville is the one trail town I 
have not explored much.  I will make exploring it more a goal on my next trip. 

All the best,
Erl
Kensington, MD

We don't have many rails-to-trails here in Colorado, but we have a lot of 
rails to roads, and they are amazing roads to ride! Phantom Canyon, Borious 
Pass, 11 Mile Canyon, Marshall Pass, Gold Camp Road, among many others

Bob,
It looks like you live pretty close to the Rock Island trail from Toulon to 
Peoria. If you go a bit further north it looks like you can ride across the 
entire state from Moline to Chicago starting on the Hennepin and 
Illinois-Michigan Canal systems.  If you look for bike shops near trails 
they will often offer shuttle services if you only want to ride one way. 
The reports below mentions Amtrack service. Start researching and planning 
and report back with your pictures from the trip!

Love the report and the bike! My fortunate chance that I can ride that 
trail from my front door. Apologies, locally, for the bad signage and way 
from Point State Park to the First Avenue and Grant Street beginning of the 
trail, locally known as the Jail Trail. PNC may have even had the entry 
blocked while they resurface the part around their building on that corner.

I always stop and buy Gatorade from the bike shop on the trail, just across

[RBW] Re: Ride report / 1st tour on my Cheviot

2017-07-28 Thread WETH
Dear Bob,
Thanks for your thoughts. In my opinion, the GAP (Pittsburg to Cumberland) is a 
nicer trail than the C (Cumberland to D.C.) for the type of tour my friend 
and I undertook.  The towns are spaced a reasonable distance apart (10-20 
miles) with indoor lodging options, the trail goes through the towns or within 
easy access to them, and the trail is extremely well maintained.  The C 
passes through beautiful scenery, but the trail tends to be more rough, and 
many towns are up steep grades from the tow path (Williamsport, Shepherdstown) 
or up a staircase (Harpers Ferry).  If one were camping, than both trails are 
pretty equal, with perhaps a nod to the C hiker/biker campsites.  But for 
shorter days and indoor lodging, the GAP would be my recommendation.  Of 
course, I highly encourage everyone to ride both.  
All the best,
Erl

Awesome trip, Erl! And, thanks for the report and pics. I've read a lot 
about tours of the entire Pittsburgh-DC route, so it's good to be reminded 
that a great time can be had doing sections. Is the Pittsburgh-Cumberland 
the most scenic portion, or is that the best from a logistics point of view?

2017-07-24 Thread Bob Lovejoy
Thanks Erl.  Indeed, I will definitely have to look into that.  I believe I 
can take Amtrak (with the bike) from Galesburg to Kansas City.  That would 
get me near the western start.  Then, if I decided I would/could do the 
whole thing, I would just need to figure out the logistics from the St. 
Louis area (??) back home.  I am thinking there might be more rail trails 
or at least good roads where I could just ride back home (which would be 
very cool).  Could be great fun and certainly good practice for longer 
adventures.

I am going to work on figuring out!  

Thanks again for the post, pictures and ride report.
